Vincent Kompany returns to training ground

Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany returned to the club's training ground this week for the first time since collapsing during a training session last month. The club shared this news in a statement on Tuesday.

Because most of the players were on international duty, Bayern could not train with a full squad. The Bundesliga leaders will host FC Cologne at home on November 20.

Kompany was discharged from hospital after meningitis irritation. The condition caused him to collapse during a session involving the club's second team. The Belgian coach had been recovering from a virus before the incident, and it was reported that he is recovering well.

The coach is continuing rehabilitation work on the training ground for a shoulder injury. Assistant Aaron Danks has been in charge of the club during this period. Under Danks, the team won against Freiburg, Magdeburg, Atletico Madrid and Mainz. They also drew 2-2 with Borussia Dortmund, their title rival in Germany.
