Kompany out of hospital as Bayern confirm meningeal irritation caused his collapse

Bayern Munich have confirmed coach Vincent Kompany's collapse was caused by meningeal irritation, as he left hospital on Wednesday to continue recovery at home.

• Kompany collapsed during a reserve-team training session on Friday and was flown to hospital by air ambulance, sustaining a dislocated shoulder in the fall.
• Sporting director Max Eberl told ARD that doctors diagnosed a meningeal irritation that caused the Friday incident and could develop into meningitis if untreated.
• Eberl said Kompany will continue rehabilitation at home, resting and taking medication, with no confirmed timetable for his return.
• Eberl said doctors ruled out a link between the illness and either the earlier virus or the pressures of coaching in the Bundesliga.
