Transfer Rumours Thread - NO FINANCIAL DISCUSSION

[Pearcey]

Oh dear, a goalkeeper who headbutted a player in front of the ref, is probably not what we need.

Maybe he’s learnt from his one moment of madness. Ade did.

[leightonjameslegend]

Muric is an international keeper with time on his side to further develop. Deemed good enough to be recalled from his loan in 2018/19 to be 2nd choice.
A first-team debut in September’s 3-0 Carabao Cup win over Oxford United, and he proved to be the hero in the quarter-final penalty shootout victory over Leicester City.
The 20-year-old kept four clean sheets as City reached the final, where he provided backup for Ederson, a role he continued to fulfil for the remainder of the season.
His record last season was conceding an average of 1.17 goals per 90 mins. Pope average was 1.25 ( yes in a tougher league)
He is 6ft 6, with good reflexes and good with his feet. The only negatives are views of Forest fans from 3 years ago and gauged over only 5 games..
Let's be honest when Pope signed from Charlton did anyone believe he was going to end up playing for England.
VK rates Muric so that's good enough for me.

Bearing in mind he might be signing for us it might be fairer to say it was more of a gentle forward movement of the head and that the opposition player massively overreacted.

[bobinho]

Please stop trying to create arguments. Let’s keep this thread going.

Irony at its best…

Point taken tho….

[eastcoastclaret]

If he signs, let's hope he has.

[ClaretMov]

I find the jackson muleka rumour a strange one, were we really in for him, if rumour's are true about him signing for Besiktas in the next 24hrs and his contract is only 14k a week building up to around 18k a week in a few year's time then wages wasn't an issue and a work permit wouldn't be an issue, so was it fake news

I have to say it makes me a tad nervous bringing in someone new, having had top quality composed keepers for the best part of ten years - how lucky we've been.

Thinking back to the palace game when Pope came on as sub, and the support he got from the fans in that and the following games. I do wonder whether his stint with us would have been so successful had we not been so supportive of him in those early games in Heaton's absence.

For a few years now our fans seem to have had our keepers' backs (it helps when they deliver quality performances of course). But I think continuing this with Muric or whoever else ends up as our new no.1 could be really beneficial to our season.

[Pearcey]

Hourihane signing for Derby. Maybe that frees up Knight.

Depends what you read. I’ve read all sorts of things ranging from we could agree a package with him, player wasn’t interested in championship football, work permit problems.

I would just put it down to we could come to an agreement for the player to join (probably a mixture of all the above).

[RVclaret]

I saw that Jason O’Connor (usual Irish ITK) on twitter say Knight to Burnley has a chance

Apparently he's didn't turn up for training Monday, probably another BS story

I doubt it, Derby only have 5 registered player's

[Newcastleclaret93]

Not a direct transfer rumour but is there anything deeper in Collins and Roberts not at training this week?

To be fair Muric is only 23 years old.
Tom Heaton was on loan at Rochdale and Nick Pope on loan with Bury at the same age.

I stopped following him because I think he’s a berk. He’s usually right on Irish players though.

They might be 5 centre midfielders though.

Strange post by Burnley Football about 1 hr ago

Is he staying, new contract more money ????

What is strange about posting a picture of one of our players in training?

If Muric comes in as No1, BPF isn't going to want to be on the bench all season. Potentially we could be looking at an entirely new goalkeeping dept.

[ecc]

Re. Muleka. Not a clue what's going on but unless the bloke is totally committed to coming to TM then we're best off without him.

[Spijed]

But didn't he say Collins had a release clause?

If so you'd think that would have been mentioned in other media outlets when discussing the interest a number of clubs have shown in Nathan Collins.

You’d think so. Didn’t he break the news that we were signing Collins?

Quite a contrast. Hopefully a bright future with us, should be sign.

[It Is What It Is]

Muric

6 feet 6
Massive build
Likes to get stuck in.......https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=b6eo10CPsKk

Christ!!! He'll get more red cards than games!
Too temperamental for me

It was in 2017 this incident and he was 18 at the time. How many has he had since ?

[Burnley1989]

Not allowed on here I’m afraid! He’s done now, I’d have banned him for life, he could have killed him.
Amazed he didn’t get 15 years

[Tricky Trevor]

Sorry if this has been posted previously.
An interview with Muric when he was at Citeh.
24secs in the sub-titles say, “I moved to Switzerland when I was 3, Mum came when she was 15….”. I think that has been lost in translation, I hope so anyway.

[ClaretCliff]

Really hope we get Muric. A 6’6” keeper would be brilliant - always thought Pope was a bit too short

That was barely a tickle and nothing compared to what Mr Barton got up to on and off the field and he was a game-changer signing for us...

You can't sign just angels... Football is the same as any job, in that, there's always one or two thugs working for the business... That's been the case wherever I've worked anyway.

[NewClaret]

Re. Muleka. Not a clue what's going on but unless the bloke is totally committed to coming to TM then we're best off without him.

This is the way you have to view things. I’d have really liked him but don’t want someone that isn’t fully committed.

[NewClaret]

I haven’t seen any footage of him claiming crosses but you’d assume it helps.

I think he looks very Pope-esque in how he makes saves in the videos. Very good reactions, but with good feet apparently and a penalty expert.

[clarethomer]

Looks good with ball at feet and for penalties.

Looks very agile for a big keeper too.

Seen videos where he has kicked balls 20-50 yards with accuracy so thats all good

This was 4 years ago so he would have been 19 as well. Feel like I am already making excuses but think he has matured since then

[Vegas Claret]

must be great to have never made a mistake when you were a young lad. Give the lad a break ffs

Alex Crook

“I heard a whisper earlier this week – I’ve not been able to completely back it up, yet – but Josh Brownhill from Burnley could also be on his way to West Ham, I think he’s available on a free transfer.”

Contract until 2024, try again Alex

[AwayClaret]

Leeds may be looking at Brownhill now.

[claretonthecoast1882]

Alex Crook does specialise in being miles off most things

One of the best unveils I've seen tbh, whoever is running the twitter account is vibing very well with the fans for sure !

Have the club caught Tony out again?

[Rowls]

Got a sneaky feeling this might be our signing of the summer - IF he stays fit.

Welcome to Burnley, Samuel.
