Vincent Kompany hospitalized as air ambulance arrives at Bayern Munich facility

Bayern Munich defender Jonathan Tah has expressed gratitude towards former Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany for his pivotal role in boosting Tah's performance. Having spent a decade at Bayer Leverkusen before joining Bayern in 2025, Tah has become the most-used center-back under Kompany in the 2025/26 season. Kompany, a former center back himself, has shown great attention and assistance to Tah in training, which has significantly improved Tah's skills.

"He has improved me a lot," Tah said, "He’s someone who really sees the whole picture. Looks beyond the game, beyond the pitch. He's really focused on developing the personality of a player and wants me to be a leader like he was." With Tah's evolving role within the team, he seems to have made substantial improvements under Kompany, potentially becoming a vital piece of Bayern Munich's puzzle for the rest of the season and beyond.
