Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany has returned to the club's Sabener Strasse training ground for the first time since collapsing during a training session. The 40-year-old fell ill on October 23 and was diagnosed with meningeal irritation, which caused him to miss Bayern's last five matches. Kompany, who was seen with his arm in a sling after reportedly dislocating his shoulder during the incident, is continuing his rehabilitation.

Assistant coach Aaron Danks managed the team in Kompany's absence, securing a 2-0 Champions League win over Atletico and a 2-2 draw with Borussia Dortmund. Bayern Munich currently sit top of the Bundesliga on goal difference, with their next match scheduled against Cologne on November 20 following the international break.
