What other candidates are on Spurs’ list?
Following the departure of Antonio Conte on Sunday, Tottenham is reportedly compiling a shortlist for their next manager. The list includes Julian Nagelsmann, Mauricio Pochettino, Luis Enrique, Marco Silva, and Thomas Frank.
How good is Vincent Kompany?
Vincent Kompany, who gained experience as Anderlecht’s boss for two years, understands that he won’t have the luxury of spending big to maintain Burnley’s status in the top flight.
In the last summer transfer window, he reconstructed the squad after losing key players such as Nick Pope, Ben Mee, James Tarkowski, and Dwight McNeil.
The team’s relegation in May 2021 resulted in ALK Capital, the Burnley owners, being required to repay £65 million on a loan taken to assist their 2020 acquisition.
Despite being only one year older than Julian Nagelsmann, who was sacked by Bayern Munich last week, Kompany has displayed impressive coaching skills.
