Vincent Kompany insists Pep Guardiola needs to “stop saying” the Belgian will one day be Manchester City manager, claiming it is unrealistic given that he is working in the Championship with Burnley.
Kompany, who captained City under Guardiola for three years, takes Burnley to the Etihad Stadium for Saturday’s FA Cup sixth-round tie. It is the former defender’s first competitive return since ending a supremely successful 11-year stay there in 2019, his status at the club underlined by his statue at the stadium.
