Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has revealed the role club legend Vincent Kompany played in the impending arrival of Sergio Gomez.
The Spanish full-back is poised to become the club's fourth summer signing, with a deal expected to be agreed over the weekend with his club Anderlecht. Despite talk of him potentially being loaned out, Guardiola insists the 21-year-old will be staying put. And he has spoken of how a recommendation from Burnley boss and ex-City skipper Kompany persuaded him to get the deal done.
Kompany coached the Belgian side between 2020 and this summer and spent a season with Gomez after signing him from Borussia Dortmund last year.
