If the desire to play every week (when fit), is his main motivation, then he'll go irrespective.

If he accepts his career is winding down, & wants to remain involved at City then he'll stay if offered a deal.

I don't know if he has future managerial ambitions, or whether his ambitions are outside football. I could imagine Kompany doing an Imran Khan & becoming a big politician but equally, he might be happy coaching our defenders for a while.

He hasn’t retired from the national team so that could mean he sees himself making the Euro 2020 squad. Also iirc he recently said he wants to play a few more years. So I’m leaning towards thinking the club will offer him a one year extension with a wage reduction and he’ll sign for another club on 2 year deal for example.
 
What does everybody think in regards to giving him an extension??

I love Vinny and he has brought glorious times to the club but I think giving him an extension would be for more for emotional than football reasons. Would offer him a coaching role at the club or let him go on a free with his testimonial and tell him once he retires he has a role at the club waiting for him.

Would rather see Eric Garcia as 4th choice next season. We’ve made the mistake of not letting go of the past too much frequently. The old needs to make way for the new.
I'd give him an extension but make it clear he'll be sharing 4th spot with Garcia (who will still only be 18 and should be ok playing most of the cup games).

Maybe but another consideration is whether he can be arsed moving out of Manchester at this stage.
 
I’d keep him he’s an inspiration when he plays and great role model for the kids. Let him finish his career here before perhaps going into management with a bit of Sky pundit work along the way.
 
Just don't think Guardiola fancies him anymore,it's a difficult one for most of us but got to be realistic I suppose,however Guardiola has to play it right,otherwise he will feel the wrath of some supporters if it does not play out nicely,and that is the truth.

Last thing he needs to do is to alienate a club legend,but it is becoming increasingly likely it is heading that way.
gen question - why is it heading that way? Vinnie will know that those being selected ahead of him are being for a reason,not because pep is trying to alienate him

We have the best set of CB's we have had for a long time,he is being phased out due to age and fitness,no-one is going to riot about it,pep has said he wants him to stay next season so he will be offered a deal i'm sure,hell even yaya got one,he is a blue now,he won't be going anywhere else as a player

Bit part games,odd cameo appearances,sometimes not even in squad,not a rocket scientist like,but don't think I'm too far off with my assumption,my opinion only of course
