Former Manchester City captain and Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany has returned to the club's training ground after collapsing while watching a training session for the club's second team. Diagnosed with meningeal irritation, an inflammation of the protective membrane surrounding the brain and spinal cord, Kompany was taken to a hospital and is now on the road to recovery, having returned to training since the start of the week.
Despite his return, Bayern did not hold a training session, with most players away on international duty. English coach Aaron Danks has been in charge during Kompany's absence, leading the team to four victories and a draw. Bayern will face Cologne in their next match on 20 November, following the conclusion of the two-week international break.
