Bayern Munich Coach, Vincent Kompany Rushed To The Hospital After Collapsing During Training Session

-



Bayern Munich ⁠coach, Vincent ⁠Kompany was rushed to hospital on Friday after collapsing during a training session, the ⁠German champions said.

The Belgian had been nursing a virus in recent days and had ⁠missed some of his team’s training sessions.

“On Friday, Vincent Kompany required medical attention after collapsing during a training session for Bayern’s reserve team,” the club ‌said. “The head coach of the professional squad had been observing the second team’s session.”

“Kompany is currently undergoing a thorough examination in the hospital and will remain under medical care. For the time being, his coaching staff ⁠will manage all training and ⁠match-related operations.”

The Bundesliga leaders, who drew 2-2 at home against Arsenal in the Champions League earlier this week, are due ⁠to travel to Freiburg on Sunday.

“Vincent Kompany’s health is our top ⁠priority,” said Max Eberl, Bayern’s ⁠board member for sport. “At Bayern, we will do everything we can to ensure he makes a speedy recovery.”

“Vinnie is receiving ‌all the necessary medical care and support, and he will be given as much time ‌as ‌he needs. Everyone at FC Bayern wishes Vinnie a quick recovery.”

Kompany, a 40-year-old former Manchester City defender, had missed training and a news conference on Tuesday before the Arsenal game earlier this week.

“I caught a pretty nasty virus last week, and of course, I didn’t listen to my body and then at some point my body just said, ‘enough is enough!’” Kompany said after the Arsenal game.
