Summer transfer window

[Woodleyclaret]

Fao Claret fanatic
Read my post re considering others point of view.I have never criticised anyone's post no matter how much I don't agree with them.

Sunderland must think they have a decent defence after last season, you have to defend goals as well as score them.

[Pearcey]

What is the obsession with Sunderland? They’re doing their business and we’re doing ours. We can only control what we do. We can’t rely on 3 teams being worse than us, we have to do our thing and see how it goes. Just chill out and try to enjoy it.

Brilliant isn't it? They'll be safe by October, just like Sheffield United had run away with the league three years ago.

[Vegas Claret]

The tweet that links Browny to Leicester also says "he admires the project at #LUFC but doesn't know if it's reciprocal"

[GrahamBranchsPerm]

Brownhill to LCFC makes sense. Wants a challenge. The impending points deduction provides just that.

*Disclaimer - plenty of respect for all JB did for us.

[ŽižkovClaret]

Wondering if Brownhill might have overplayed his hand a little, and backed himself into a position whereby we ended up moving on and deciding to gamble on Ramsay/Tresor/Flemming/Hannibal as our No10 solution?

I think there may well be another DM to come in just yet, to play alongside Cullen / Hannibal with Laurent very much as backup

In the PL, Brownhill maybe just isn't as enticing a prospect as his demands might have required him to be....

Note the title of this thread. It is not Burnley Summer Transfer Window.

[Djs254]

Do we think we will hear more news tomorrow after the new PSR cycle start for us?

I’m aware, thanks. I was just asking why people were obsessed with Sunderland. It’s bizarre.

[Rileybobs]

I wouldn't say it's bizarre, they are the one team we should be banking on finishing above.

I’ve commented on this multiple times but there seems to be some confusion.

We could sign a player today for £10m on a 4 year deal, and the amortisation contribution to the 2024-25 accounting period would be immaterial (£6750). We could have signed someone in the past week and that would range from £6750 (today) to £47,000 (7 days ago), also immaterial. When I say immaterial, I’m meaning for PSR reasons. It’s highly probable we were enough above the line, prior to Trafford going, but particularly with that sale, definitely well above the line.

This is the problem with wrong information, if repeated often enough it becomes fact. This window will follow pretty much how most do, some signings at the start 1 or 2 in the middle and then a few at the end.

It feels like the 90s and Boxing day sales are 24 hours away and punters can't wait for some.

[Steddyman]

I still think we see signings tomorrow.

[ksrclaret]

At the risk of upsetting people, and in lieu of any Burnley news, Sunderland are definitely getting that Guiu on loan from Chelsea.

Disclaimer - I'm not a Sunderland fan, nor am I hoping they finish above us. I'm simply sharing some summer transfer news because I know he's been discussed by Burnley fans as a potential signing.

We're having some fun, that's all it is

Not bothered about that, I wouldn't want to waste a premier league loan on someone so inexperienced. I'm sure he's got talent but he's only played 6 top flight games plus 13 in the Spanish third tier.

[burnmark]

Dodgson to Stockport on loan with view to buy. - Burnley Express

[billyhamilton82]

Fully agree with that, I would much prefer us signing Vardy (20 years his senior) for a year.

In fact I would rather Vardy comes in than anyone else at this moment in time.

[Djs254]

This may be wishful thinking, but if we are after kinkoue, adopo, diouf (if that was ever happening) they are all French and Tchaouna and Esteve may have played with them at some point. Wonder if they are involved in trying to get them to sign here?

[jojomk1]

Are Espanyol doing any transfer business in the window ?

[Im_not_Robbie_Blake]

I wouldn't have thought we will be signing centre backs, having six already, ie Steeeve, Worrall, Humphreys, Beyer, Tuanzebe and Ekdal competing for two positions.

Sean Dyche managed with just three, ie Tarks, Mee and Long in the Prem for many years!

[123EasyasBFC]

Yeah loads of business, that’s why we aren’t anymore because Alan Pace and all the scouting team are spending their time in Spain.

Beyer wont be around the first team anytime soon and Humphreys is also out injured.

[Woodleyclaret]

I thought Beyer was back in full training and raring to go as was Tressor and Ramsay

[Steddyman]

I don't know if this has been shared before:

Exclusive: Burnley have made a bid for Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dúbravka. Fee around £2m.

Newcastle prepared to sell with Aaron Ramsdale set to sign for the club.

Doesn’t look a legit source to me.

5 mins looking through their profile and there’s absolutely nothing that would make that source look credible.

[Ric_C]

Looks like Callum Brittain is going to Middlesbrough

Rumoured to be looking at Zaroury along with Norwich and Coventry.

[123EasyasBFC]

It’s not a link but I think Broja at Chelsea would be worth a punt on, either perm or loan with option

[Hedontplayforyou]

A player that needs to leave Chelsea for good and start his career properly now.

Exactly, had a good spell on loan at Southampton couple of seasons ago

[ClaretFelix]

I don't get the understand the love Broja gets and the subsequent valuations. He hardly ever plays and rarely scores when he does

[burnley007]

Very intrigued to see what tomorrow brings...

[boyyanno]

He's a good player and the type and position we need but he's been injury plagued recently I think.

[PremierLeagueClass]

Why are you expecting it to be different to any other day?

[Steddyman]

Why are you expecting it to be different to any other day?

I am expecting it to be different.

[ksrclaret]

I remember going down to Southampton a good few years ago now and Broja was excellent for them. He got the better of Tarkowski physically on a number of occasions and not many forwards could do that.

Unfortunately, that was so long ago now we still had Dyche in charge and Cornet I think was making his debut for us. He's not kicked on whatsoever since then.

[Hedontplayforyou]

Injuries have plagued him but if fit he definitely has the physique and attributes for the premier league . He will likely end up with a loan move again.

[RVclaret]

I am expecting it to be different.

For what reason?

[Hedontplayforyou]

He’s expecting us to make a couple of signings

The Burnley Way do not agree: https://x.com/TheBurnleyWay/status/1951014475252871308

[Steddyman]

For what reason?

PSR. I know your interpretation of how the cost of the player is amortised over the period of the contract, but there any many trusted sources stating August 1st before we make more signings.

[123EasyasBFC]

I’m confident we won’t make a signing tomorrow

[CrosspoolClarets]

Regarding the Dubravka link, he is Ok as a keeper, a slight downgrade on Trafford, but is 36 and has never played much so one could ask if a 38 game season is too much for him physically and mentally.

I could reluctantly accept that if money is tight and the bulk of Traff’s fee goes to a striker of the calibre of a Mikautadze or Mitrovic, somebody of that ilk. But if that isn’t to be the case I’d prefer us to lock in that defence again with a high calibre keeper signing - like Pope, Livakovic, the Brazilian guy from Botafogo etc.

[Steddyman]

For example: https://x.com/CWeatherspoon_/status/1948690724947366139

Clearly we are very close to a breach, even with the Trafford sale.

You mention dubravka being able to play 38 games. The Brazilian keeper from botafogo was a 29 and only played 83 games in his career. Livakovic would be the keeper for me, don’t think he would cost more than 10m

Agree.
