“Take Him Blindly!” – Uli Hoeneß Reveals Pep Guardiola’s Decisive Role in Bringing Vincent Kompany t

Bayern Munich honorary president Uli Hoeneß has shed light on the unconventional process that led to Vincent Kompany’s appointment. Speaking to Kicker, Hoeneß admitted the board was initially skeptical of the former Burnley boss, who was the "fourth or fifth" candidate considered after several high-profile rejections.

The turning point came during a high-level consultation with Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. According to Hoeneß, when asked for his professional assessment of his former captain, Guardiola delivered a glowing endorsement, stating Bayern could "take Kompany blindly." This ultimate reference, combined with a successful personal meeting involving Kompany and his father, convinced Hoeneß and Max Eberl to ignore the Belgian's recent relegation and hand him the reins at the Allianz Arena.
