Actual Transfer News - NO BICKERING or pointless debates...

[burnley007]

Might be a good idea to give him the same chance that tresor and Ramsey have had, they've also been ineffective.

I'm not sure Ramsey has had much of a chance so far...there is a player in there, he will be mint one day, we just have to be patient.

[Big Vinny K]

Yes.

So who do you think wasn’t ineffective against Everton ?

And what exactly would you expect from any player coming on in the 82nd minute in a game where we are being totally dominated all over the pitch ?……let alone a player who had been injured most of the season and hardly kicked a ball.

If he’s as good as Terry I’d take him !

[CharlieinNewMexico]

These “journos” that write like it’s 1978.

“Race”
“Alerted”
“Registered their interest”

How do you register your interest? Call them up and say “yep, put me on the list, don’t want to miss out!”

Seems highly unlikely

[California Colner]

Burnley have made a £10.2m bid for Montpellier's 21-year-old France Under-21 centre-back Maxime Esteve.

[Roosterbooster]

Rumours ive read - nothing substantive, just possibilities (and some seem very very unlikely indeed)

OUT
Benson to Leeds or Southampton
Roberts to Leeds
Taylor to Leeds

IN
Loan for Carlos Forbs (Ajax)
Attempt to buy Maxime Esteve from Montpellier

I think you're right. The article I read said a loan would be authorised only if it included a buy option

France Bleu Herault says Burnley have made a second offer of 12m euros plus 2 million bonus and 15% sell on clause for Maxime Esteve. Apparently Montpellier are still negotiating. The manager said nothing will happen before Monday. Not sure what the bonus is for, presumably if Burnley stay up.
The pundits suggested that he can still improve in his passing and heading. They seemed to think that Kompany has made him his main target and that might sway the player to play for a 'hero' in his own position.

Watched him today in a very poor quality game. Montpellier played 5-2-3 (he was the left of the centre halves) so it was difficult to judge him. He was erratic with his passing and didn't get chance to show his aerial ability or what pace he has.

Again he is 21 so will have a lot of growing to do (not just physically).

That's pretty much what I saw but I wasn't watching closely for the full match. It is a very small sample. I was excited by his rumour and his history but hie performance today didn't make him stand out. I think VK knows more about it than I do. I'll trust his judgement.

According to L’equipe Christopher Wooh has declined interest from Burnley

Mercato: Wooh (Rennes) declined an interest in Burnley

Back in Rennes after the elimination of Cameroon in the round of 16 of the CAN, axial defender Christopher Wooh received some approaches from English clubs, especially Burnley. An interest that he declined. He will probably continue the season in Rennes.

Starting during the CAN with Cameroon, author of the goal of the qualification for the round of 16 against Gambia (3-2, January 23), Christopher Wooh is back in Rennes after the elimination against Nigeria on Saturday (0-2). He will find a team whose dynamics have changed and competition with Warmed Omari in a position of right axial defender, which Rennes wanted to strengthen at the beginning of the transfer window.

But the Breton club delayed. AliduSeidu arrives rather from Clermont to play right lateral, even if he can also evolve in the axis. Omari has raised his head and Wooh (22 years old, under contract until 2026) will most likely stay. He had some leads in England, but he rejected an interest of Burnley, 19th in the Premier League, who should join Montpellier's Maxime Estève

So typical of us atm, these transfers just appear from absolutely nowhere and players I've never heard of. I love it!

Infos #BurnleyFC :
Clarets that are still looking for a left back until the end of the window appreciates the profile of Jayden Oosterwolde from #Fenerbahçe.
Able to play central back, the recruitment staff likes his versatility but won’t be able to make more than a loan with an option to buy due to budget restrictions imposed by owners for this #transfer window… #twitterclarets #Fener #mercato #PL

Esteve and Oosterwolde

[burnley007]

Things are starting to happen...

[scrambledclaret]

I think you're right. The article I read said a loan would be authorised only if it included a buy option

I'd be pretty amazed if we were in for Forbs I watch Ajax quite often as my partner is an Ajax fan (and her parents are season ticket holders). He's exciting but flatters to deceive and unless Ajax are willing to take a massive hit, I doubt we could get him at a price that would allow us to flip him in a year or two. Even if he tears up the champ next year, would that make him suddenly worth 20m plus?

In the short term, it's difficult to see how a player that's struggled in the eredivise (albeit in an extremely raw Ajax side) is going to make much of an impact in a relegation battle and surely we have more pressing priorities?!? Still, we do seem to love a young winger....

Still, it would give me something to discuss with the in laws!

[gandhisflipflop]

A quick search of the left back tells me he was linked to AC Milan last Jan and was described as a fast left back. Goodness knows we need one.

[burnley007]

Esteve imminent apparently...

Glad there appears to be some restrictions. Any permanent deal this window has to contingent on us staying up.

Not thrilled by his performance according to Goody1975. Didn’t watch the game so will have to wait and see

BURNLEY WANT DUTCHMAN

Burnley are looking to sign dutch left back Jayden Oosterwolde from Fenebache.

Jayden can also play centre back and could sign for the clarets on a loan to buy deal.

BURNLEY WANT MILLWALL TEEN SENSATION

Burnley have made an official approach to Millwall over the availability of 18 year old midfielder Romain Esse.

The youngster has made 15 championship appearances this season scoring 1 goal in those.

It is believed Esse would be open to making a late-window move away from south London

Hull City have also made an approach.

[Murger]

Any chance of us actually signing any players that make us competitive this season and not next?

BURNLEY MAKE SECOND SIGNING OF THE WINDOW

Burnley are set to announce the signing off Maxime Esteve from Montpellier.

Source - Fabrizio Romano - Tier 1

The player pushed to join the clarets and a deal will see Esteve join on loan until the end of the season with a mandatory buy option if certain conditions are met.

Gonna be an exciting 48 hrs I reckon.

If this signing happens I think our squad is full, so if we want to sign better players we will need to release a few, however much fans don't want to lose them

[gandhisflipflop]

We have churlinov and Obefemis place free. Fofana wouldn’t need to be registered would he?

Edit, we could de register redmond also who isn’t likely to feature.

Not sure that’s true as we’ve lost Obafemi and Churlinov. Fofana is 21 so does that mean he qualifies for an U21 place? Esteve may too?
