Former Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany, now 40, has returned to Bayern Munich's training ground after falling ill while observing the club's reserve team practice. Diagnosed with meningeal irritation, a condition affecting the protective membranes encasing the brain and spinal cord, Kompany was hospitalized last month. Bayern Munich announced that he is currently on the path to recovery and has returned to the training facility since the beginning of the week.

However, the team did not conduct a training session during his absence, as many players were participating in international duty. English coach Aaron Danks assumed responsibility during Kompany's time away from training, guiding Bayern to four wins and a draw. The squad will next face Cologne on November 20, following the conclusion of the two-week international break.
