Niko Kovač wishes Vincent Kompany a speedy recovery ahead of Dortmund match

Borussia Dortmund manager Niko Kovač expressed his best wishes for Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany's recovery after Kompany collapsed following a training session last Friday. Kovač spoke before Dortmund's 1-0 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt, which gave them a provisional lead in the Bundesliga. The cause of Kompany's collapse remains unclear, but it occurred while he was recovering from an infection and hip issues. Reports suggest that the demanding nature of coaching may have contributed to the incident. Kompany's recovery period may affect his participation in the upcoming 'der Klassiker' match against Dortmund, which is expected to have significant implications for the title race later this month.
