After five days at the hospital, Kompany’s recovery went smoothly enough to send him home to complete his rehabilitation. Assistant coach Aaron Danks has filled the interim period as Bayern’s manager. Despite a rash of player injuries, Danks has kept the undefeated ship moving forward. Danks has led the team to four wins, including that masterclass performance against Atlético Madrid.As the coaching carousel spins, there have been various reports that Danks is garnering attention from other clubs. Luckily, a recent report from Abendzeitung journalist Maximilian Koch says otherwise (via @iMiaSanMia).Amidst the recent Manchester United rumours, neither Vincent Kompany nor FC Bayern are willing to let Aaron Danks go. And the Englishman himself is not considering a move away from Munich either. Following his interim role in the past few weeks, Danks is expected to return to his usual assistant coach role, as Vincent Kompany is set to return to the bench against FC Köln after the international break.It would not be the first time that Danks has abandoned Kompany for an English club. Back in 2021, Danks left Anderlecht to become an assistant at Aston Villa. The appointment barely lasted a year when Steven Gerrard was fired, and Danks served as the team’s steward for a couple of months before moving to Michael Carrick’s Middlesbrough staff.At 43 years old, Danks will soon become a hot commodity in the market. However, it is unlikely that Danks leaves Bayern for another assistant post.Join the conversation!Sign up for a user account and get:New, improved notifications system!Fewer adsCreate community postsComment on articles, community postsRec comments, community posts
