In Bayern told about the condition of the lost head coach

Bayern coach Vincent Kompany, who passed out at the Munich club's training base, will spend a few more days in hospital. This was announced at a press conference by Bayern sports director Max Eberl.

40-year-old Kompany yesterday became ill at the training base of the team. After completing the training of the main team, the Belgian specialist was going to watch the youth team, but at this point he lost consciousness. The company was taken to the hospital by helicopter.

“The good news is that his condition is stable. Last night I spoke to him and his wife. It was a difficult moment for all of us: yesterday he passed out on the field and will now spend a few more days in the hospital until all the necessary examinations are carried out.

According to him, the most important thing now is to establish the cause of the incident and help the coach get back in shape. "He will only return when he is fully healthy," Eberl added.

Last week, Kompany contracted a viral infection that also coincided with a hip injury, causing the Belgian to even need help climbing stairs. In addition, on October 20, he missed a press conference before the match of the third round of the main stage of the Champions League against London Arsenal (2: 2).
