Kompany's Manchester City future depends on injuries, says Guardiola

Manchester City are in discussions over offering captain Vincent Kompany a contract extension, manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed.

Kompany joined City from Hamburg in 2008 and has been an integral part of their three subsequent Premier League triumphs.

The Belgium international started back-to-back league games for the first time since August as the reigning champions claimed a vital 2-1 win over Liverpool in the title race last week.
