Vincent Kompany believes Manchester United’s signing of fellow Belgian Romelu Lukaku shows how intense the competition will be for this year’s Premier League title.
“More teams than ever not just can but have to claim that they want to be Premier League champions,” Kompany said. “Everybody is investing heavily at the moment.”
The Manchester City captain praised his compatriot, saying Lukaku’s hunger to score goals is what sets him apart.
