- Bayern announced that Kompany was taken to hospital after suffering a sudden malaise during a reserve-team training session and will undergo further medical tests.
- The club said Kompany will remain under medical care and that his assistants will run training and matches with no timetable given for his return.
- Bayern doctors led by internist Prof. Roland Schmid had already examined Kompany after a recent viral infection that visibly affected his mobility in prior days.
