The Vincent Kompany Belgium and Hamburger SV defender deal is now finalized and he is likely in the line-up for this weekends tussle against West Ham.
While Mark Hughes must be in glee for acquiring the twenty-two year-old central defender, this is a peculiar story from the Hamburger vantage. While Martin Jol may have been annoyed with Vincent Kompany’s involvement in the Olympics, it is poor business management to lose a great talent because he chooses to serve his nation. I would have expected Martin Jol to personally give a bit of latitude to this but this has a stench of a old behind-the-scenes power struggle that cost the Bundesliga club a superb young talent. Either way, its a great coup for Man City.
