Vincent Kompany hospitalized after collapsing at Bayern Munich training

Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany was rushed to a Munich hospital on Friday after collapsing during a training session for the club’s reserve team. The 40-year-old Belgian manager was observing the Under-23 session at the Säbener Strasse training ground when the incident occurred, prompting an emergency response that included an ambulance and a rescue helicopter.

Sporting director Max Eberl confirmed that Kompany is in stable condition but will remain under medical observation for several days to undergo thorough examinations. Eberl noted that the club will not set a specific timeline for his return, stating, “We won't talk about days, but about weeks.”

Kompany had reportedly been struggling with a viral infection for the past week, which had caused him to miss some training sessions and media duties. Despite the illness, he recently appeared on the touchline during a Champions League match against Arsenal.

In the interim, assistant coach Aaron Danks and the existing technical staff will manage training and match activities. The team is scheduled to face SC Freiburg in the Bundesliga this Sunday.
