Vincent Kompany Hospitalised After Collapsing at Bayern Training

Bayern say he is undergoing thorough medical examinations and the club has handed day-to-day coaching to his staff while he remains under care.

Overview

  • The club confirmed that Kompany collapsed while watching the reserve team and was taken to a Munich hospital for comprehensive tests on Friday.
  • German outlets reported an emergency doctor attended and a helicopter landed at the Säbener Straße training ground, though Bayern have given no clinical details.
  • Sky in Germany described Kompany’s condition as stable and Bayern said he will remain under medical care with no timeline set for his return.
  • Sporting director Max Eberl said the club’s priority is Kompany’s health and that the coaching staff will manage training and upcoming matches, including the league trip to Freiburg.
  • Kompany had a recent viral infection that limited his involvement earlier in the week and club doctors will investigate whether that illness is related to the collapse.
