Burnley manager Vincent Kompany has reportedly been identified by Tottenham as their first choice candidate to replace Antonio Conte, who departed last month.
The former Manchester City captain has overseen a remarkable transformation at Burnley this season after the club were relegated last term amid a string of financial and playing concerns.
Kompany has transformed the way the club operates, both on and off the pitch, leading Burnley to promotion with seven games to spare, with many observers dubbing them the best team to ever grace England's second tier.
According to The Sun, Tottenham have become one of Kompany's many such admirers and see him as the ideal candidate to takeover this summer.
