Vincent Kompany Returns to Bayern Munich Training After Health Scare
World Sports · 05:51:54 - Saturday, 14 November 2026

Head coach Vincent Kompany has returned to Bayern Munich's training ground after collapsing at the end of October.

The 40-year-old former Manchester City captain was hospitalized after falling ill while watching the club's second team train. He was diagnosed with meningeal irritation, an inflammation of the protective membrane surrounding the brain and spinal cord.

Bayern said in a statement that Kompany is on the road to recovery and has been back at the training ground since the start of the week. However, the Bundesliga leaders did not hold a training session as most players are away on international duty.

English coach Aaron Danks has been in charge during Kompany's absence, guiding the team to four victories and a draw. Bayern face Cologne on November 20 after the international break.
