Overview
- Vincent Kompany collapsed while watching Bayern’s reserve-team training last Friday and was taken to a Munich hospital for urgent care.
- Assistant coach Aaron Danks and sporting director Max Eberl reported that Kompany is calm and showing daily improvement but has not received a formal diagnosis.
- German outlets say Kompany had been fighting a viral infection before the collapse and the club expects him to be sidelined for weeks rather than days.
- Aaron Danks and the first-team coaching staff are running preparations for upcoming matches, and visits with Kompany have avoided football talk to focus on his recovery.
- Bayern have stressed privacy and patience for treatment, saying the club will give Kompany the time he needs while the squad manages the emotional and fixture pressure of the coming weeks.
