Overview
- Uli Hoeneß told BR's Sonntags‑Stammtisch on Sunday that he expects head coach Vincent Kompany to be back on the Bayern sideline “in two, three weeks.”
- Kompany has been sidelined with a meninges inflammation, a medical irritation of the membranes around the brain that forced him to pause his coaching duties.
- The coach’s reported collapse at a training session about two weeks earlier led to the absence and heightened media and fan concern.
- FC Bayern has not issued an official timetable for Kompany’s return, so Hoeneß’s timeline should be read as an informed projection rather than a club confirmation.
- If Kompany is fit to resume after the international break, his return would restore Bayern’s regular sideline leadership and affect match preparation for fixtures such as the first post-break game on November 20.
