Manchester City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne wants the injury to Vincent Kompany to be used as motivation to take the Premier League top spot.
Kevin De Bruyne has called on Manchester City to take top spot in the Premier League for injured captain Vincent Kompany ahead of Monday's visit to league leader Leicester City.
Kompany limped off just 10 minutes into his return from a calf injury against Sunderland on Saturday, his withdrawal taking some of the gloss off a 4-1 win over the Black Cats.
With a three-point gap between the sides following Leicester's 1-0 loss at Liverpool on Boxing Day, victory at the King Power Stadium will lift Manuel Pellegrini's men above their hosts thanks to superior goal difference.
