Munich’s attention has briefly shifted from Bayern’s football to the condition of Vincent Kompany, whose movement was visibly restricted during last weekend’s match against Leipzig.
The Belgian coach is dealing with a physical problem that prevented him from moving normally on the touchline during that game. Bayern expect Kompany to take his place on the bench for the next fixture, although there remains an unanswered question over the extent to which the issue may affect his involvement.
For now, there is no indication that Bayern are preparing for his absence. The focus is instead on whether Kompany can continue his usual matchday role from the technical area as the German champions move into the next stage of their schedule.
