JAKARTA - Bayern Munich is on the verge of reclaiming the Bundesliga title. However, Manager Vincent Kompany postponed talks on celebrations. He insisted his team needed to prepare for the game, not the party.
Die Bayern prepares for a Bundesliga match at RB Leipzig headquarters on Saturday, May 3, 2025, WIB night, where they can win a record-breaking 34th title.
Kompany's side are eight points ahead of last season's unbeaten champions Bayer Leverkusen, who are in second place with 67 points, with three games remaining.
Victory against RB Leipzig will ensure the league title, even though Leverkusen won at home to Freiburg the day after.
"We want to win and be champions. It will be fun. The match against RB Leipzig is final for us."

"Hopefully we can do it. We prepare ourselves as usual for Leipzig."
"I'm not preparing for any celebrations. I'm preparing for the game. They (Leipzig) have a lot of talent and quality, a lot of good young players."
"They lost in Frankfurt (last week). I think they will now play with full energy again, trying to attack."
"The team made a radical decision against Bayern. I think we will get the best version of Leipzig as an opponent."
"It will be difficult. We need to prepare ourselves for the match, not for parties," Kompany said at a press conference on Friday, May 2, 2025, local time.
Bayern Munich's top scorer Harry Kane, who is looking to win his long-awaited first title in his career, has been suspended.
However, Kompany said the striker might join the team.
"Harry is one of our best players mentally. He knows the moment will come soon. He emits confidence," said Kompany.
Kane has scored 36 goals and made 12 assists in 44 appearances in all competitions for Bayern Munich this season.
"I haven't seen anything in the drills hinting that he won't even be playing on Saturday. He trained well."
"Maybe some players will come with us to Leipzig. Harry may not miss the opportunity to join," said Kompany.
Apart from that, defender Eric Dier has decided to leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season following the expiration of his contract.
This was emphasized by the Director of Sports Christoph Freund on Friday, May 2, 2025.
The former 31-year-old England international joined Bayern Munich on loan in January 2024 after playing for a decade at Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur.
