As expected, German national team coach Jürgen Klopp met with Vincent Kompany at Säbener Straße on Sunday morning and attended Bayern Munich’s training session ahead of the squad’s DFB-Pokal matchup vs. VfL Osnabrück on Tuesday.
Sky Germany journalist Kerry Hau hilariously caught some footage of Klopp that might be the best video you see all week based on how it was captured:

Later, a better set of pics was released:
Klopp’s visit to Bayern Munich’s training ground is part of his effort to get more acquainted with the players and coaches who will form the core of his national team. Klopp was already in attendance for Bayern Munich’s impressive 5-1 Bundesliga victory over VfB Stuttgart on Friday before visiting the club’s training session.
The visit gave Klopp an opportunity to observe Kompany’s squad up close and speak with the Bayern Munich head coach and club officials. With Bayern Munich supplying several important Germany players, including Joshua Kimmich, Jamal Musiala and others, establishing a strong relationship with Kompany will be important for Klopp.
Klopp’s visit also comes as he begins laying the groundwork for his first Germany squad, with his opening international matches approaching next month.
