The black hole of youth training? Dresen puts pressure on Kompany: The results of building youth training bases have not met expectations

Hupu August 1st News In recent weeks, there have been a lot of friction between Bayern Munich's youth training base and professional teams. Some people criticized head coach Vincent Kompani, believing that he did not pay enough attention to the players he trained and had hardly integrated reserve and youth team players into the first team.
The most recent example is 19-year-old Adam Aznu. The talented left-back had hoped for a chance as both star left-back Davis and Ito Yoshiki were absent for a long time. However, he never really got the chance and eventually moved to Everton in frustration.
Now, Bayern Munich CEO Jan Christian Dresen puts pressure on coach Kompany. Dresen made it clear: "We don't want to just develop our players and then let them go. Most importantly, we want to bring our players to our first team, which is why we built this training base. Unfortunately, this is not as frequent as we hoped."
Dresen said of Aznu's transfer departure: "We have young players like Pavlovic, Stanisic and Mushara, but it didn't work in Aznu's matter."
However, the three local players were not promoted by current head coach Kompany (joined from Burnley in 2024 for 10.5 million euros), but by his predecessors Hans Frick (Mushara and Stanisic) and Thomas Tuchel (Pavlovic).
Sky Sports expert Didi Harman also recently criticized Kompani and the team's youth training management: "There must be a time to integrate into the team. This is the biggest problem for me. I really don't understand why they are building this training camp! The coach doesn't seem to want them to play. If the coach doesn't do that, someone has to tell him. But now it seems that this is not the case."
Bayern Munich Sports Director Max Ebertell responded to Biography's question about Luis Dias (28/transfer from Liverpool for up to 75 million euros) and said: "You can always see that the cup is half full and half empty. To me, this discussion is not entirely accurate. With Stanisic, Mushara and Pavlovic, Bayern Munich There are three more or less stable starters in the Black starting lineup. In Germany, such clubs are not common. "
Regarding Aznu (who was loaned to Valladolid in the second half of last season), Eber said: "He was allowed to play in La Liga for six months to adapt to adult men's football. Now the next step is coming, he said he doesn't want to play here anymore, he wants to do something else. Our president has a famous saying: You can't take dogs to hunt. So, if you don't want to seize this opportunity, the club must make a decision. We don't want to suffer any financial losses - that's why we made a decision like Adam."
Bayern Munich will receive 9 million euros plus bonuses (up to 12 million euros) for the Moroccan international (3 international games).
Eber stressed that many young players are participating in professional training - there were 8 on Thursday: Paul Wanna (19), Tarik Buchman (20), Leonard Carr (17), Jonah Cousy Asaray (18), Weston Mike (16), David Santos Deber (18), Casiano Chiara (16) and goalkeeper Leon Kranac (18).
But the sports directors also put pressure on them: "Our focus is mainly on campus. The children must make good use of this opportunity; they can go all out among professional players. Paul Vanna has returned, and he has a great opportunity to reach his full potential in the next few weeks and even months (due to a fractured Musharafi bone). I don't know all the statistics, but I believe that Bayern Munich campus has trained more professional footballers than anywhere else in Germany. It's also a proof."
