With Cornet away at AFCON and Wood away to Newcastle, where on earth are Burnley going to get a goal from?
Well they will now go and buy a replacement
Besides FPP compliance, is it not the equivalent of us spending £200,000?
Just because you have cash, doesn’t mean you should spend it stupidly.
I don't know who they can bring in during January that will make a serious difference.
That will be down to their scouting
It's the clause in his contract. Burnely weren't selling to Newcastle due to them being a relegation rival, nothing they can do now that Newcastle have matched the clause.
I know, but them choosing to match that clause is poor business IMO
Building for the future though
Utterly ridiculous signing and fee paid. Sums up English football right enough. Although still not anywhere near the worst signings down there. £100 million on Grealish is still the one I’ll never get my head round.
Mental money and I’m sure that’s enough to make anyone push for a move, regardless of his feelings towards Hibs
I think £25 million on him considering he’s out of contract next year is a bit excessive tbh!
There’s a lot better options for that kinda money and I don’t think he’ll keep them up. Only has 3 goals this season for Burnley.
Where you seeing £25m? I thought it was £20m. It might seem excessive but signing him effectively dooms Burnley imo.
Telegraph saying his release clause was £25 million and Burnley expected nobody to bid that amount.
Still the man they'd look to for the goals especially now Cornet is away to AFCON. Now they've got Barnes, Rodriguez and Vydra up front unless they reinvest.
I’m sure I saw this on Sky’s yellow banner.
It does weaken Burnley but they now have £25 million to spend on a replacement
If that jobber is going for £20m, Morelos is worth at least £30m.
