Julian Nagelsmann has been appointed as Bayern Munich’s new boss. Nagelsmann,33, is regarded as one of the game’s top young coaches.
Club’s statement said: “Bayern have appointed Julian Nagelsmann as their new head coach.’ The Bayern statement read. “The Bavarian-born 33-year-old will move to Munich from RB Leipzig on July 1, 2021 ahead of the new season, signing a five-year-contract with the German record champions until June 30, 2026.”
Upon leaving Leipzig, Nagelsmann wrote in a statement: “I will leave RB Leipzig with a heavy heart. I’ve been able to coach a special team here at a club with huge opportunities and the best possible conditions to work in. “
“Everybody here, including the staff who work alongside the team, have ensured that we’ve written plenty of stories for the club’s history books and are continuing to do so for now. I’m really proud of that.”
Following the dismissal of Niko Kovac in November2019, Flick took over as Bayern Munich boss and guided the club to a Champions League, Bundesliga, and DFB-Pokal treble. He added the German Super Cup, UEFA Super Cup, and FIFA Club World Cup to his trophy cabinet.
He became just the second boss in history to win six trophies in a single calendar year. Nagelsmann took over Leipzig from TSG Hoffenheim in 2019 and guided them to the Champions League semifinals in his first season.
