Vincent Kompany manquera « des semaines, pas des jours » de traitement contre le virus, selon le Bayern Munich

• Head coach hospitalised after collapsing in training

• Assistant coach Aaron Danks to take charge against Freiburg

Bayern Munich expect their head coach, Vincent Kompany, to miss an extended period as he continues his hospital treatment for a virus after collapsing on the training pitch on Friday. Speaking at a press conference on Saturday, Bayern’s sporting director, Max Eberl, confirmed Kompany was still hospitalised in a “stable” condition.

Kompany’s English assistant coach Aaron Danks will replace the 40-year-old for Sunday’s Bundesliga match at Freiburg. Eberl told reporters “examinations were continuing” to determine the nature of the former Manchester City and Belgium captain’s condition, with a recovery timeframe yet to be determined.
