But the ex-Manchester City skipper waved away questions over his future on Sunday when named the Championship manager of the season.
SunSport understands he informed his coaching team that he wants to see the job through at Burnley.
And Clarets chiefs have promised to back Kompany in the transfer market this summer — despite being placed under a transfer embargo last month.
Kompany can clinch the Championship title at rivals Blackburn tonight.
Meanwhile, Spurs are coming off their latest humiliation having been hammered 6-1 at Newcastle.
And it has seen the club part ways with interim boss Cristian Stellini, who had taken the role following Antonio Conte’s sacking.
Ryan Mason will take over with immediate effect following a meeting between Daniel Levy and senior players.
Addressing supporters in an official statement, Levy described Sunday’s mauling at Newcastle, in which they were 5-0 down after just 21 minutes, as “devastating”.

He wrote: “Sunday’s performance against Newcastle was wholly unacceptable. It was devastating to see.
“We can look at many reasons why it happened and whilst myself, the board, the coaches and players must all take collective responsibility, ultimately the responsibility is mine.
“Cristian will leave his current role along with his coaching staff. Cristian stepped in at a difficult point in our season and I want to thank him for the professional manner in which he and his coaching staff have conducted themselves during such a challenging time. We wish him and his staff well.
“Ryan Mason will take over head coach duties with immediate effect. Ryan knows the club and the players well. We shall update further on his coaching staff in due course.
“I met with the player committee today – the squad is determined to pull together to ensure the strongest possible finish to the season.
“We are all clear we need to deliver performances which earn your amazing support.”
