Kompany emphasizes that training standards cannot be lowered in order to help players regain their form.


Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich will travel to Jeju World Cup Stadium for another friendly match against Jeju SK. Head coach Vincent Kompany stated that one of the team's current goals is to help returning players regain their form, emphasizing that training standards must not be lowered.


In their previous friendly match, Bayern Munich secured a resounding 15-0 victory over Rotaegan, thanks to goals from Aleksandar Pavlovic, Arian Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Felipe Chavez, Maicon Cardozo, Armindo Sibb, Palinha, Bastian Assomo, and Joshua Kimmich.


Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany said in an interview, "I want to thank everyone for the warm welcome we've received since the team arrived in Jeju. Such overseas tours have become an important part of the preseason preparation for most teams. Therefore, being able to travel, train, and play in the best possible conditions is crucial for us."


"Currently, we have all the necessary conditions for preparation, so I believe this will be a very positive part of the team's preparations for the new season."


Kompany shared, "This is the second time I've led a team in pre-season training since taking charge of Bayern Munich, and each time the situation is completely different. Last year, we started training after the Club World Cup, which was probably the most difficult time. Although all our players had returned by then, the time before the official matches was very short."


“This year is a different story. Each player is returning to the team at a different time. Some players have just recovered from injuries, and we hope to gradually help them reintegrate into the team. So, this year we are facing a completely different challenge. The most important thing is to ensure that those players who have recovered from injuries can smoothly reintegrate into the team.”


Kompany pointed out, "The first thing I told the players was that we're here not only for commercial promotions and media events, but also for playing games abroad. But no matter where we are, it's always preseason preparation. We must maintain a serious and professional attitude."


“Whether in Bayern Munich or elsewhere, we must complete training and preparations to the same standard. However, we are used to this arrangement. For most teams, this is part of preseason preparation, so there is no problem.”
