Through 5 years and several promotions through the ranks up to the U-19s, Gaydarov has enjoyed a good reputation and standing at Bayern.

Under his stewardship, the U-19s managed to qualify for the knockout rounds of the U-19 Bundesliga. But he was never going to stay at Bayern’s academy forever and so the 34-year-old coach will look to take the next step in his career, as confirmed by Bayern’s official website : After five years at the FC Bayern Campus, U19 coach Peter Gaydarov will leave the club to pursue a new challenge in professional football. The 34-year-old coach has held various positions within the youth academy – as head coach of the U16s, assistant coach of the U19s, and head coach of the U17s.

For the past two seasons, he has been in charge of the U19s, guiding numerous talented players on their path to professional football. Bayern’s director of Youth Development, Jochen Sauer, had this to say. “Peter has enriched our youth development work with great commitment and high professional quality.

At FC Bayern, we not only develop players, but also coaches – Peter’s path is a good example of this. ” Gaydarov himself had some words to say not just about his time at Bayern but also about the ongoing season, which had yet to end: “My time at the FC Bayern Campus was an exceptionally wonderful and formative period for me, both professionally and personally. I am grateful for the trust and cooperation of all those in charge, my colleagues, and the players with whom I was able to continuously develop over the past five years.
