Bayern: good news as Vincent Kompany returns

After being absent since October 23, when he collapsed on the sidelines of a Bayern Munich reserve-team training session, Vincent Kompany has returned.

The former Manchester City player returned to the Bayern Munich training ground on Tuesday, as reported by TZ. Vincent Kompany had been hospitalized, and meningitis was diagnosed.

🚨 Bastian Schweinsteiger reacts as Vincent Kompany returns to training 🗣️ We've had some couple of bad news this season,earlier it was Jamal Musiala that collapsed on the pitch then Vincent Kompany. I was worried when I heard he collapsed watching the reserve team train. Vincent Kompany is a strong person, I've known him from his playing days. The moment I heard the news I was shocked because, anything that brings Big Vincent down must be something serious. Today he returned back to training,which means he's ok, I'm excited he's recovered and I want him to always stay strong and healthy. Football is a beautiful game but healthy issues like this makes it look bad

Vincent Kompany returns earlier than expected

His return had already been expected after the international break, but the Belgian coach was apparently able to make it to Säbener Strasse, Bayern's training ground in Munich, as early as Tuesday. This is excellent news that will delight all Bayern fans, who were worried about the coach, aged just 40.
