Vincent Kompany has transformed Bayern Munich into a goal-scoring monster.
Bayern were — by no means — goal shy preceding Kompany’s arrival as head coach in the 2024/25 season, registering 94 goals under Thomas Tuchel in the 2023/24 season, two more than Julian Nagelsmann managed in the 2022/23 season. Kompany has since taken Bayern to a new level.
In the Belgian manager’s first season with Die Rekordmeister, his side ended the season with 99 goals. An incremental improvement to Tuchel’s Bayern. In Kompany’s second season, his side has gone absolutely berserk.
Bayern cap off their Bundesliga season in record breaking fashion, scoring 122 goals in the Bundesliga, shattering their own 101 goal record set in the 1971/72 season.
This is how Kompany’s devastating attack stacks up against the top scoring side’s in the history of Europe’s top five leagues (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Most goals scored by a top 5 league team in a single season:
125 – Torino 1947/48
122- FC Bayern* 2025/26
121 – Real Madrid 2011/12
Bayern ultimately fall three goals short of equaling the greatest scoring season of all time in Europe’s top five leagues. But on the bright side, not only did Bayern beat Real Madrid in the Champions League, they also beat their record of 121 goals in a single season — a cherry on top of a historic season.
