Vertonghen comes with strong words about Kompany

At RSC Anderlecht they had a world star in their ranks with Vincent Kompany for three years. He did a good job as a trainer, but fell victim to a power struggle and was forced to the exit. In hindsight a big mistake. Jan Vertonghen spoke highly of ‘Vince the Prince’.

Vertonghen came to Anderlecht a few months after Kompany left. It is a pity that both did not work together in the Lotto Park. Vertonghen played in the past with the Red Devils together with Kompany. As captain, he left a great impression on ‘Sterke Jan’, which he announced in the FC Afkicken podcast.

CHARISMA

“When Vincent Kompany talks, you listen. Trust me. He has such incredible charisma. Vincent is one of the greatest personalities I’ve ever met in football. He was the best captain I’ve ever had for the team. “He always thought about what was good for the team, on and off the field. He was respected by everyone. Kompany was also the first player of the Golden Generation to make a big transfer, opening the door for the rest,” said Vertonghen.

Kompany has received a lot of praise in recent years for his time as a footballer. Many former Man City players have also described him as the ideal captain. It was certainly no coincidence that Kompany became a trainer and already made a big impression at Anderlecht and Burnley at the age of 37. It is therefore no coincidence that his name is already being mentioned at Tottenham after 3 years as a trainer.
