What happened: Vincent Kompany told reporters he hopes Bayern Munich will get more favorable refereeing decisions next season. The remark, relayed by Fabrizio Romano, follows Bayern's Champions League semifinal exit to Paris Saint-Germain. Kompany has repeatedly questioned the officiating across both legs of the tie.

Why it matters: The comments extend Kompany's running critique of the calls that shaped Bayern's European campaign, signaling that the club's frustration will carry into the offseason. Public complaints from a head coach can invite UEFA scrutiny and sharpen the narrative around how Bayern build their 2026-27 squad. With the Bundesliga already decided in recent weeks, the European near-miss becomes the defining storyline of Kompany's debut season.

What to watch: Watch for any UEFA response to Kompany's officiating remarks and how Bayern's hierarchy frames the season at end-of-year reviews. Transfer-window moves will indicate whether the club believes the squad — not the refs — was the real gap to PSG.
