Kompany discharged from hospital after collapsing at training

Kompany discharged after collapsing at training last Friday due to meningeal irritation; no return date set pending medical clearance.

Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany has been discharged from hospital following his collapse during a second-team training session on Friday, caused by meningeal irritation. Board member Max Eberl confirmed the discharge on Wednesday, saying Kompany is doing well given the circumstances. The Belgian will rest and take medication before resuming duties, with no specific return date set — he will only resume after receiving medical clearance. Kompany had missed some media duties earlier in the week due to a viral infection but was present in the dugout for Bayern's 2-2 Champions League draw against Arsenal. Assistant coach Aaron Danks has taken temporary charge of the team and was on the bench for their 3-1 win at Freiburg on Sunday. Bayern face Borussia Dortmund on Saturday.
