Vincent Kompany 'in talks' to become next Burnley manager and return to English football

Former Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany is reportedly in talks to become Burnley ’s new manager.

The Athletic state that the 36-year-old, who is currently in charge of Anderlecht in his native Belgium, is keen on a move to Turf Moor and trying to get the Clarets back into the Premier League after their relegation down to the Championship.

The ex-City defender is said to be in talks over becoming Burnley's new manager and is on their three-man shortlist to become the permanent successor to Sean Dyche after he was sacked last month. It is claimed the Turf Moor club hope to have their next manager in place by the end of next week.
