Middlesbrough Assistant Aaron Danks and former Leeds United number two René Maric are among the new faces on Vincent Kompany's coaching staff at Bayern Munich.

RENE MARIC is one of the most exciting young coaches in Europe. At the age of 31, he is Head of Coach Development and Playing Philosophy at Bayern Munich and has worked for Red Bull Salzburg, Borussia Dortmund and Borussia Monchengladbach. He told the TGG Podcast about his coaching journey and lessons.

RENE MARIC says the most important attribute for a Bayern Munich player is ‘game insight’, as shown by the legendary Thomas Muller and young pretender Aleksandar Pavlovic.

NEW Bayern Munich Sporting Director Christoph Freund says “soft skills are absolutely crucial in our assessment of players” and that the club “gather a lot of insight into the players off the pitch.”

BAYERN MUNICH used a huge videowall at their training ground for the first time on Wednesday ahead of their final Bundesliga game of the season.

BAYERN MUNICH manager Julian Nagelsmann says electronic communication between players and coaches during matches is something “we absolutely need in football.”

BAYERN MUNICH have announced they are scraping their Under-9 and U10 teams, meaning entry level to their Academy will be at U11s from the summer of 2022.
