Vincent Kompany Holds XXL Training Session with 60 Players at Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany conducted an unprecedented training session on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, with over 60 men on the pitch at Säbener Straße. With only six first-team professionals available—Sven Ulreich, Tom Bischof, Arijon Ibrahimovic, João Palhinha, Sacha Boey, and Armindo Sieb—due to World Cup participants still on vacation, Kompany turned the session into a massive talent casting. More than 35 youth players from the U23 and U19 teams participated, including prospects Maycon Cardozo, Wisdom Mike, Guido Della Rovere, Felipe Chávez, and Filip Pavic. The session was supported by 20 coaches and staff, including U19 coach Leonhard Haas and new Bayern II coach Dante. Kompany stressed the importance of communication during the XXL session. The training took place amid major construction work at the club's facilities, including new pitches and renovations.
