Vincent Kompany is a contender for the Tottenham head coach’s job - but Burnley are ready to offer their boss an improved deal to keep him at Turf Moor.

Former Manchester City captain Kompany is emerging as one of the most promising coaches in English football having already secured Burnley an instant return to the Premier League.
