August 23, after the German media “Bild” asked the Bayern spokesperson twice for confirmation, the news that the team’s head coach Kompany admitted to defender De Ligt that he was the team’s top defender, as reported by the media The Athletics, was false.
Previously, TA reported that a source close to de Ligt said that de Ligt’s camp believes that Bayern is “playing word games” when talking about his future and wants him to leave. De Ligt met with new head coach Kompany to ask him why he felt sold. According to De Ligt’s camp, Kompany told De Ligt that he was not responsible for the decision and that De Ligt was his “top defender” in his mind. They believe that the board has made a choice to facilitate his departure.
Later, when TA and “Bild” asked Bayern officials to verify the rumor, the Bayern spokesperson denied it twice.
