Burnley manager Vincent Kompany has signed a five-year contract with the Championship winners, effectively ending Tottenham’s hopes of appointing him.
The Belgian coach took over as Clarets coach last summer, signing a deal that runs until 2025. After just one year, however, he has decided to extend his commitment to 2028 after guiding them to the Championship title and a return to the Premier League.
The former Manchester City defender has been linked with taking over as Tottenham coach this summer, but it appears the London side will have to look elsewhere for a permanent successor to Antonio Conte.
Kompany said after committing to a deal until 2028: “Burnley and Turf Moor felt right pretty much from the start – so it also feels right to sign for the next five years.
