January 2022 Burnley Transfer Window Rumours - Links - Discussion

[claptrappers_union]

Just seen that Callum Chambers has signed for Aston Villa.

It’s my observation that Villa seem to very good at either keeping the deals under wraps and / or completing them quickly.

I seem to remember the Buendia signing being done quickly, Ings joined under the radar, and the Cortiniho deal was completed within a few days after some speculation.

[Andreshotboots]

If these deals come off the club should make sure the Turf is packed out for the Watford game, make it a carnival get national flags etc. Let's get a real buzz around the club again.

I've heard we've contacted to the Premier League to request a Covid cancellation

The Ings deal came out of nowhere too

Money no option for Villa these days...very little time spent haggling over the odd million here or there I wouldnt imagine

[Spike]

Not aware of a third as yet, certainly not having progressed like these two.

What about the deal for the Oldham youngster?
Have we just delayed announcing this until a bigger deal can be broadcast

[minnieclaret]

I just don’t get this deal. Who has he been signed to replace?
Cash, Konsa, Mings, Digne seems a decent back 4 to me, although I’m not a Mings fan people in the game rate him. Chambers is certainly not good enough for their MF.
Gerrard not known for playing 3 at the back either.

[NewClaret]

Very good chance

I love it when you say things like this Tony

[bfcjg]

Interesting this private jet in and out of the local Wolfsburg airport in and out of Manchester today.

Liz Truss just fancied an authentic Frankfurter or two .

If these last 24 hours have taught us anything on this post it’s that some fans won’t be happy with anything we sign.

My son told me earlier that he’s been at Barnfield today. I didn’t post as he’s often wrong, but this would tie in!

[Wile E Coyote]

Very good chance

both players might have verrucas, but apart from that great news.

The Centre Half they had on loan from Utd has gone back...Tuanzebe ?

And sometimes he’s not wrong

[Milltown1882]

They lost Tuanzebe, Gerrard has been after versatile strength in depth. Makes perfect sense.

From what I heard that was just speculation. Not sure that’s going to happen.

[bodge]

Great work Wisco !

[Dy1geo]

It doesn’t mean no. Let’s hope they are not two more on the wasted pile.

You dug out Dale Stephens from the wasted pile, I would like to think that you have shredded all the other ones.

[NewClaret]

Right. This is officially… exciting times!!!

[ClaretTony]

I never shred them. Just imagine if I did that and then we signed Andrew Driver or Derek Riordan.

[Quicknick]

The finances of London clubs are a different planet to regional clubs.

Only some of them.

[Wile E Coyote]

big lad too, 6 foot 6.

[northeastclaret]

Up front with Andy Carroll as well will certainly put the willies up most teams. Can’t wait

It will be the classic " Big man, Little man " partnership, with Carroll the Little man..

[BabylonClaret]

Realism, Mr Rombald.
You rarely see those type of goals in the PL, from the very best players.

Hasn't Cornet bagged at least three of these in just over half a dozen games

[CrosspoolClarets]

The good thing about both these possible signings is that they come from smaller nations than ours and play at stadiums with only 30,000 capacity so it isn’t a particular step down. When we factor in the training facilities we have and the ability to live in Manchester it can be an appealing lifestyle. Let’s be honest Wolfsberg is one big car factory and the only appealing thing about Zagreb is the weather.

The one worry I have is that DZ have a 85 year old owner who has been there over 50 years so upsetting the fans is likely to be something he will be keen to avoid.

Germany a "smaller nation than ours " ?

[arise_sir_charge]

Germany a "smaller nation than ours " ?

Last time I checked it was still 2-0

[Vegas Claret]

Wout !

from that video he looks like a huge upgrade on Wood, fingers crossed

[Grimsdale]

Tweet from Nixon:

Burnley. Weghorst been over. Work permit next step. Orsic similar. Both late 20s. Prices in budget.

I mentioned that further up the thread re taking longer because of Brexit. Previously work permits wouldn’t have been required for either of them.

[Taffy on the wing]

Seferovic is a very good player ...

[mybloodisclaret]

If it is just down to work permits surely things are at a very advanced stage, almost every thing completed? This is excellent news if true.

Not sure how it all works now but you would assume a club will have done its homework on the work permit prior to going through the process of trying to bring in the player.

There was a European agent on SSN earlier this week and he said it’s delaying some of these deals by 48 to 72 hours.

[kendalianclaret]

Who took a picture of my plane and put it on here, my wife didn't know i was in Germany she thinks i was still in Spain, now i am going to have to find an explanation for that, if things weren't traumatic enough worrying about our transfer speculation.

[rob63]

And I'm the nephew of Genghis Khan on Wikipedia

& how is your uncle, RalphCC? Still as scary as ever?

[KateR]

Been a long day here and only just been able to get to read the news articles first then come here to read from where I left off last night. 8 pages catch up here and countless news articles on the state of play, typical busiest day yet but very good reading and things certainly appear to be going in the right direction, just need the article from AP saying welcome!

Could it really be "exciting times" after all this time?

[Taffy on the wing]

Wout !

https://youtu.be/t7nXYfqlgko

Having watched that, he looks like an upgrade on Chris Wood......quite agile for a big unit. Looks a bit of a character too.

[Vegas Claret]

they'll both get work permits without doubt

Bloody Leicester fans - came out of administration, won the league, played in the Champions League, won the FA Cup and are currently moaning like **** !! Some people really need a giant head wobble

[superdimitri]

This is why you have to keep multiple targets in case.

[WiscoClaret]

Great work Wisco !

Thanks!

[KRBFC]

One of the best things about being in this league is the sense we are viewed as a big club with power. We’ll miss it when its gone.

Fact, a power fans on here have been desperate to deny, we certainly aren't little old Burnley worldwide. The PL pull is enormous and the wages paid are enormous (ours too). Orsic will double his salary here apparently....

Another, along with Wout Weghorst from the KRBFC scouted shortlist

[superdimitri]

Two things that Wout Weghorst and Mislav Oršić share. 1. They clearly know where the net is. 2. Some fans will have a hard time spelling their names.

As for pronouncing them I only really know the Dutch is pronounced Vout Veghorsht. Croatian seems to be Mislav Ochich.

I'm very excited over these two if we can pull it off. In Oršić we may finally have someone good at free kicks again.

[ClaretMov]

I don't know if I've missed something or I'm being a bit slow but how come we are linked with most of our targets from abroad, what's changed, have we new scouts. I know the better bargains are from out of England with fee's and wages compared to players even in the championship and I'm 100 percent not complaining its fantastic, but it's not what we've done In all the year's we've played in the premier league, how are we finding these player's like Cornet now, long may it continue.

[ClaretMov]

Read today online the Weghorst deal is 12 million and Orsic is 7, that leaves us with around 6 million left over from the Chris Wood deal, if these player's turn out to show half the ability they've shown in various YouTube clips then this is fantastic business done by all at Burnley football club

[Vegas Claret]

Brentford apparently offered 12 million for Lewis-Potter of Hull

[claretandy]

No way will we sign 2 target men.
