Kompany's health condition announced

Bayern Munich Sporting Director Max Eberl made a statement about Vincent Kompany, who fell ill during training and was taken to hospital. In his assessment before the Freiburg match, Eberl said he had spoken with Kompany and his wife the previous evening and that what happened was not easy for them.

According to Sky Sport, the Belgian head coach's health condition is stable. It was stated that Kompany will stay in hospital for a few more days and that his return to the team could take weeks. The cause of the illness has not yet been determined. Although doctors reached results in their initial examinations, additional tests are needed to identify the source of the problem. Eberl stressed that he is not a doctor and said he did not want to make a definitive comment about his health.

Kompany fell ill on Friday at Bayern Munich's training facilities while watching the amateur team's training session and was taken to hospital by ambulance. The 40-year-old coach had previously had problems due to a viral infection and a hip ailment. For this reason, he watched most of the 6-1 win over RB Leipzig seated, and later missed some training sessions and the press conference.

At Bayern Munich, the priority at this stage is for Kompany to recover fully, before sporting matters. In his absence, assistant coach Aaron Danks will be in charge of the team. The English coach will also lead the team in the Bundesliga match away at Freiburg.
