As the 2024/25 season kicks off for Bayern Munich, there are some interesting developments to note in the squad. Joshua Kimmich has been partnered with Aleksandar Pavlovic in the holding midfield positions, while Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala, Mathys Tel, and Thomas Müller make up the front four.
Tactically, coach Vincent Kompany has stuck with the 4-2-3-1 formation that has brought success in the past. However, one notable change has been the positioning of Alphonso Davies at right-back. The Canadian international, who initially joined as an offensive winger before transitioning to left-back, has found himself on the opposite side of the pitch under Kompany’s leadership.
This shift in Davies’ position could prove crucial, especially with Stanisic sidelined due to injury for the upcoming weeks. It’s possible that Davies may step in to fill the void left by Stanisic’s absence. In addition to Stanisic, Bayern is also facing injuries to Leroy Sané, Hiroki Ito, and backup goalkeeper Daniel Peretz.
Despite these challenges, Bayern Munich will be looking to maintain their winning ways as they navigate the early stages of the new season. Stay tuned for more updates on how Kompany’s tactical decisions and player positioning shape the team’s performance in the weeks to come.
