Vincent Kompany has signed a new five-year contract as Burnley manager after leading the club into the Premier League.
The Belgian, who has won the Championship in his first season at Turf Moor, had been linked with jobs at other Premier League teams but has now committed his future to the Clarets.
“Burnley and Turf Moor felt right pretty much from the start - so it also feels right to sign for the next five years,” Kompany told the club’s official website.
“Together with the fans we have made Turf Moor a fortress again and continue to look forward to the future and the job of making Burnley better with every step.”

Chairman Alan Pace added: “We are ecstatic Vincent has signed a new deal!
“He is the perfect fit for how we all see Burnley Football Club moving forward - an extraordinary leader, setting ever higher standards and driving our club to the levels we all want to achieve.”
After concluding their Championship season against Cardiff City on Monday, Kompany and his Burnley players will eagerly await the release of their fixtures for the 2023/24 Premier League campaign, which will be announced on Thursday 15 June. The season kicks off on 12 August.
