Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany is being criticized for the limited integration of youth players into the first team, as only two made their debuts this season. Though Bayern Campus sporting director Markus Weinzierl believes in a solid connection between the first team and youth, many young talents had to be loaned out instead of receiving game time. Although youth players often participate in training, the challenge remains to convert that engagement into actual minutes on the pitch to meet the club's ambition of incorporating youth talents regularly.
