Former Manchester City defender Vincent Kompany has been a name linked with a big move to Chelsea and Tottenham in recent weeks as next manager for both clubs. The 37-year-old's coaching journey appears to be on the rise after a difficult spell at Anderlecht led to his time at Burnley this season.
With the club in the Championship after relegation, Kompany was tasked with transforming the side's style of play while guiding them back to the Premier League. He managed just that, playing possession-based football as the side cruised towards promotion and the title with weeks to spare.
It led to the links with some big moves, but the former City captain was adamant that he was going to stay at Turf Moor for the time being. He has backed that up by signing a new contract that will take his time with the club until 2028, showing the faith they have in the coach.
