Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany has been discharged from hospital after being diagnosed with meningeal irritation, following his collapse during training last Friday. The 40-year-old Belgian is now resting at home and will continue treatment with medication, according to sporting director Max Eberl, who confirmed the diagnosis and said Kompany will return to work when fully recovered.
Kompany missed Bayern's 3-1 Bundesliga win at Freiburg and their 6-1 DFB Pokal victory over Magdeburg, with assistant coach Aaron Danks in charge for both matches. Eberl stated it would be weeks, not days, before Kompany resumes full duties, while Harry Kane revealed Kompany called him before his Ballon d’Or win in London.
