Manchester City fans' misery as faith in Vincent Kompany dwindles

It's little surprise Manchester City are reportedly renewing their interest in Juventus centre-back Leonardo Bonucci, even if the Italian club aren't so keen on a potential move.

The defender was a target for Pep Guardiola's team throughout the summer and has recently spoken about how the chance to work with the Catalan manager was tempting for him.

As Vincent Kompany walked off the pitch in the 2-1 victory at Swansea in the EFL Cup last Wednesday, the supporters feared the worst and it's prompted the club to explore other options. Many were hoping he'd uncharacteristically spoken out of turn and had in fact been sent off in the aftermath of the home side's consolation goal, but the news of another injury was soon confirmed.
