The 33-year-old will move to Munich from RB Leipzig on a five-year contract this summer as a replacement for Hansi Flick, whose contract will be terminated by mutual consent.
"Julian Nagelsmann represents a new generation of coaches. Despite his young age, he already has an impressive CV. We are convinced that with Julian Nagelsmann, we can continue the magnificent successes of recent years," said Bayern president Herbert Hainer.
"I would like to express my thanks to Hansi Flick on behalf of FC Bayern. He took over our team at a difficult time in 2019 and went on to win six trophies, with the seventh hopefully to follow. He will always have a place in FC Bayern’s history books. We wish him all the best for his future."
