Vincent Kompany has seemingly ended speculation regarding him taking charge at Tottenham or Chelsea next season by signing a new five-year contract with Burnley. The former Manchester City defender has reportedly attracted interest from the two London clubs having done an excellent job in his first season in charge at Turf Moor. Burnley secured promotion back to the Premier League as Championship champions having played excellent football throughout the campaign. “Burnley and Turf Moor felt right pretty much from the start – so it also feels right to sign for the next five years,” said Kompany, whose new deal runs until 2028. “Together with the fans we have made Turf Moor a fortress again and continue to look forward to the future and the job of making Burnley better with every step.” Burnley’s chairman, Alan Pace, said: “We are ecstatic Vincent has signed a new deal. He is the perfect fit for how we all see Burnley Football Club moving forward. An extraordinary leader, setting ever higher standards and driving our club to the levels we all want to achieve.” Burnley can rack up 100 points – the highest tally in the club’s 140-year history – if they beat Cardiff in the final game of the season on Monday.
