totally revised so as to incorporate the correction of the flaw pointed out by YCor and also to put the citation details at the end for easier reading

I corrected that YCor is not the original poster.
Nov 20, 2019 at 5:58 comment added Qayum Khan @YCor : I've added an edit to address your two comments. I hope that my amended answer is satisfying from a purely classical point of view.

"3 Proof" is corrected in response to the two comments of the original poster on this answer
Nov 19, 2019 at 10:21 comment added YCor Probably you can prove with such an argument that there exists a sequence of closed proper subgroups $(U_n)$ such that every proper subgroup is conjugate into one of the $U_n$, and then the argument works as soon as you know that there is no properly decreasing sequence of closed subgroups.
Nov 19, 2019 at 10:19 comment added YCor The statement "There exists $n$ and proper closed subgroups $H_1,\dots,H_n$ of $G$ such that $CptSgp(K)\subset U_{H_1}\cup\dots\cup U_{H_n}$ is clearly false (since $K$ is missing), but even if you mean $CptSgp(K)\subset U_{H_1}\cup\dots\cup U_{H_n}\cup\{K\}$, it's false when $K$ is the circle group. (I'm also confused you define $U(H)$ and then denote $U_H$.)

changed "G" to "K' in the first paragraph, for notation consistent with the rest of the answer
