Vincent Kompany was rushed to hospital on Friday afternoon. A medical helicopter also landed at Bayern Munich’s training ground for the Belgian manager, BILD reports.<\/p>\n
Already unwell this week, Kompany had been struck by a viral infection last weekend. It forced him to lie down in his coach’s room during and after the match against RB Leipzig (6-1).<\/p>\n
He then missed Bayern’s training sessions on Monday and Tuesday, leaving his assistant to handle the press conference ahead of the Champions League match against Arsenal (2-2).<\/p>\n
According to BILD, the viral infection has caused problems with “old scar tissue”. The former Manchester City player is struggling to move around at present, among other issues.<\/p>\n
The Belgian said at the press conference after the match against Arsenal: “As a coach, you always want to do everything and achieve everything. I caught a pretty nasty virus last week and, of course, I didn’t listen to my body. At a certain point, my body said: Stop now!”<\/p>\n
Why an ambulance took Kompany to hospital on Friday remains unclear. According to BILD, there is “great concern” for the Bayern manager.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Vincent Kompany was rushed to hospital on Friday afternoon.
