Vincent Kompany jokes his children have a 'tough decision' to make after his Burnley side were drawn at his beloved Man City in the FA Cup quarter-finals... as he insists his old team will do him no favours

Vincent Kompany admits his three children might have split loyalties with Burnley handed a dream FA Cup quarter-final tie at former club Manchester City.

Kompany booked a return to The Etihad when his runaway Championship leaders saw off 10-man Fleetwood with a 90th-minute winner from Connor Roberts.

Attention then immediately switched to the draw which paired Kompany with a club where he holds legendary status and has a statue in his honour outside the stadium.

‘My ties with City are extremely strong and will remain so,' he said.
