Bayern's Kompany is improving but no comeback date yet, says assistant coach Danks

Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany is improving following a collapse in training last week and there is no date for his ​return yet, assistant coach Aaron Danks said on Tuesday.

The Belgian was rushed ‌to hospital on Friday after collapsing during a reserve-team training session and is expected to be sidelined for weeks. The 40-year-old had been battling a virus in recent days ​and had missed some training sessions before his collapse.

"I paid him ​a short visit yesterday," Danks told a press conference ahead ⁠of Wednesday's German Cup second round against visitors Magdeburg.

"He is in good ​spirits. It looks like every day he is getting better. There are no ​major updates in terms of diagnosis or return to work. Let him rest, let him take his time."

The German champions have a busy match schedule with Magdeburg on Wednesday, ​followed by the Klassiker against title rivals Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga ​on Saturday. They then travel to Madrid in the Champions League next week to ‌face Atletico.

"We ⁠had some good conversations (with Kompany) but kept it away from football and specific tactics," Danks said. "It was just a friendly chat and nice to see him and catch up."

The assistant coach said Kompany's health scare coupled with ​Monday's Ballon d'Or win ​for Bayern striker ⁠Harry Kane reflected a rollercoaster of emotions for a squad that has shown the necessary team spirit to stay ​on course.

Kane is the first Englishman to win the prestigious ​award ⁠in 25 years, after Michael Owen won it in 2001.

"For us, we are super professional," Danks said. "Full extremes of life in the last week. Joys and ⁠highs for ​Harry and the lows of the last ​days."

"To get through these moments we had to rely on our chemistry, our team spirit and ​that definitely helped us," he added.
