(opens the publisher’s site)Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany will miss "weeks, not days" after collapsing on the training pitch Friday, with assistant Aaron Danks stepping in.
- Kompany collapsed during Friday's training and was airlifted to a Munich hospital, where Bayern said his condition is stable.
- Sporting director Max Eberl said Kompany will remain hospitalized while doctors determine his condition, which followed a virus that had kept him from the pre-match press conference.
- Assistant coach Aaron Danks confirmed he will lead Bayern for Sunday's Bundesliga match at Freiburg.
- Captain Joshua Kimmich, on bereavement leave since Tuesday, will also miss Sunday's game, Danks said.
- Eberl said Kompany collapsed while watching the club's second team train and questioned whether he should have been cleared for Wednesday's Champions League match against Arsenal.
- Bayern expect Kompany's extended absence to affect their Bundesliga matches and the Champions League clash with Atlético Madrid on November 3.
- Kompany said he exacerbated his condition by pushing through the illness that led to his collapse on Friday.
- Sporting director Max Eberl said Bayern will not set a timeline for Kompany's return until doctors identify the cause of his collapse.
