Overview
- Bayern confirmed on Tuesday that head coach Vincent Kompany has been back at the club’s Säbener Straße training ground since the start of the week and is “on the road to recovery.”
- Kompany collapsed while watching a reserve-team session on October 23 and was hospitalized with meningeal irritation before being discharged to continue recovery at home.
- The coach is undergoing rehabilitation for a dislocated shoulder sustained in the fall and was seen wearing an arm sling during his visit to the training base.
- Assistant Aaron Danks has served as interim head coach and overseen a run of four wins and one draw, keeping Bayern top of the Bundesliga on goal difference.
- Bayern stress a cautious timeline for Kompany’s return, with sporting director Max Eberl saying it will take “weeks, not days,” and the club has not confirmed whether he will be available for the November 20 match against Köln.
