Premature Bayern farewell? This is Kompany’s reaction to the ManCity rumors | OneFootball

Vincent Kompany has quickly become the key architect of FC Bayern’s sporting success, so it’s no wonder that the Belgian has long attracted the interest of top international clubs. Manchester City, in particular, is repeatedly mentioned as a potential suitor. However, there are now many indications that Kompany still sees his future in Munich

Those in charge at Säbener Straße recognised the development early on and acted accordingly. Back in October 2025, Kompany extended his contract early until 2029 – a clear commitment to the joint path. According to Bayern patron Uli Hoeneß, this extension was also intended to protect against poaching attempts from other clubs

Most importantly, the contract does not contain an exit clause, putting FC Bayern in a comfortable position and showing potential suitors the limits at an early stage

Manchester City remain interested

Nevertheless, the speculation continues. According to Sport BILD, Kompany is at the top of Manchester City’s wish list should Pep Guardiola leave the club. The connection is obvious: Kompany played for the Skyblues for eleven years and shaped an era there as captain

Many observers believe that a comeback as coach is only a matter of time – but probably not in the short term

A recent detail could now be interpreted as a clear sign. As the Sun reports, Kompany has put his villa near Manchester up for sale. The property dates back to his active time at City

The sale is said to have one main reason: Kompany and his family feel at home in Munich and are apparently planning to stay in the Bavarian capital for the long term

Internally, the 40-year-old has long been trusted to shape a formative era at FC Bayern, with the team’s sporting development, team spirit and style of play clearly speaking for the Belgian

The latest developments show that, despite all the rumors, there are many indications that Kompany wants to continue his career at FC Bayern.
