Vincent Kompany reveals interest from rival clubs

Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany has revealed that rival clubs tried to convince him to leave the Premier League champions this summer.

The 26-year-old, who recently signed a six-year contract with the club, has claimed that he is determined to win more trophies with the North West outfit.

"I'm not going to give names, but the opportunity was there for me to start negotiating with other clubs," said Kompany.

"It's only normal when you win the Premier League, or have a couple of good seasons, that you get interest at the end of the season."

The Belgium international moved to the Etihad Stadium in 2008.
