The Bayern manager believes his team must be ready for a stronger challenge from their rivals in Germany and across Europe.

According to the reported comments, Kompany stressed that Bayern's competitors will be highly motivated because many of them failed to win a major trophy last season.

The Belgian also warned his players against becoming arrogant after their achievements.

“What happened last season is no longer important,” Kompany reportedly said, stressing that Bayern must approach the new campaign as a fresh challenge.

That message reflects Kompany's approach since taking charge of Bayern. He has previously warned his players against arrogance and demanded that they maintain the hunger that helped them succeed.

Bayern enjoyed a strong campaign under Kompany and restored themselves to the top of German football, but the manager knows that defending success can be harder than achieving it.

Their rivals will now have another season to challenge Bayern's dominance, while European opponents will also be targeting the German champions.

Kompany's warning is therefore clear: Bayern cannot afford to rely on what they achieved last season.

They have to start again, compete with the same hunger and prove themselves all over again.

Can Bayern maintain their hunger and dominate Germany again?
