Aaron Danks provided a positive update on Vincent Kompany on Tuesday, saying the Bayern Munich head coach appears to be improving day by day following his collapse last week.

Bayern Munich assistant coach Aaron Danks provided an update on Vincent Kompany’s condition at a press conference on Tuesday.

The Bayern boss has stepped away from work until further notice after collapsing at the club’s training ground last Friday.

Although Kompany has yet to receive a diagnosis, the 40-year-old appears to be doing well under the circumstances, Danks told reporters on Tuesday.

“I popped in to see Vincent briefly yesterday; he’s in good spirits. It looks as though things are improving day by day," Danks said. 

"There’s no definitive prognosis. He’s very calm and is being given plenty of time to recover. We had some good chats, but they had nothing to do with football or tactics. He asked how we were getting on.”

Danks and the rest of Kompany’s coaching staff will remain in charge for Wednesday’s DFB-Pokal clash with 1. FC Magdeburg, while it remains unclear when the Belgian head coach will return.
