Have Burnley had an injection of spends or something…
If they don’t go up I’d be concerned once the payments run dry.
A majority stake was bought by a US VC group about 2 years ago in a leveraged buy out that put the debts onto the club. So, it really is all geared to go tits up.

Sold Pope and Collins, a few older players left for free.
They’re on a +£25m balance right now, their most expensive signing this summer cost them £2.7m.
10 players out, 8 players in. So far.

They’ve sold off a couple valuable pieces and unfortunately it looks like one of McNeill or Cornet will be next. A few veterans left for free and they also let Weghorst go to Turkey on loan.
I like the moves they’ve made. It’s a complete tear down to rebuild. From my perspective I don’t think they’re coming right back up but it won’t be long.

Nicolas Tagliafico from Ajax to Lyon for £3.7m.
Hm, interesting. I believe he had a deal lined up with Barca a while ago, which obviously fell through. Or maybe just interest from Barca, but then Ajax wouldn’t let him go.
Anyway, would have thought he’d go for a higher fee.
Ben Mee is a Bee! From Burnley to Brentford on a free, 2-year deal.
