That is according to a report from journalist Alan Nixon, who says that the 50-year-old is instead set to remain at Turf Moor.
Despite his Burnley side being relegated from the Premier League back to the Championship after just one campaign this season, Kompany looks set to be handed a big opportunity this summer.
According to reports, Bayern and Burnley have reached an agreement for Kompany to quit the Lancashire club in order to take over the German powerhouse following their split with Thomas Tuchel.
In fact, Kompany has already finalized the details of his transfer to the Bundesliga; however, it appears that Jackson will not be accompanying him to Europe.
Mike Jackson will remain at Burnley rather than transfer to Bayern Munich.There have been rumors that when Kompany takes over at Bayern, he would try to bring his backroom crew with him.
Jackson, who has been an important member of Kompany’s staff behind the scenes, was supposed to be a part of that. In the summer of 2021, the defender who had previously played for Preston North End, Bury, and Blackpool joined Burnley as their under-23 boss.
Following brief stints as manager of two more clubs he had played at, Shrewsbury Town and Tranmere Rovers, he was appointed.
After Sean Dyche was fired, Jackson took over as temporary manager of Burnley’s first team for the remainder of the 2021–2022 season.
It has been suggested that Kompany will look to take his backroom staff with him to Bayern, once he takes over the club.That was set to include Jackson, who has been a significant part of Kompany’s team behind the scenes. The former Preston North End, Bury and Blackpool defender first joined Burnley as their under-23’s manager in the summer of 2021.His appointment came after brief spells as manager of two more clubs he had previously played for, Shrewsbury Town and Tranmere Rovers.Jackson then ended the 2021/22 campaign in interim charge of Burnley’s first-team following the sacking of Sean Dyche.It is difficult to avoid thinking that Kompany’s impending transfer to Bayern is somewhat of a setback as a result of this.
It will be a tall order for the Belgian to lead the German giants once Thomas Tuchel leaves.
In addition to the pressure to perform, he will have to turn around the team following one of their worst seasons in memory—a rare season without a trophy.
