January 2022 Burnley Transfer Window Rumours - Links - Discussion

[Pearcey]

Christ!! Losing Wood is grim. This season has been utterly depressing.

[elwaclaret]

Surely not. Why would the club allow that???

If it has been written into his contract, little Burnley can do to stop it.

[Iloveyoubrady]

No concrete rumours but some Newcastle fans seem to think it’s £22M.

[jdrobbo]

Twitter is suggesting the release clause is between 7-10m

Not sure who we sign on that much

No, that’s just a release clause that allows Chris Wood to talk to other clubs. We don’t have to let him go at all if we don’t want, so I suspect the fee will be very high considering.

[MACCA]

I refuse to believe the clause is 7-10m considering we bought him for 15m.

I heard 20m.

[ClaretMov]

Well if we weren’t going down before we certainly are now.

Why, we are only taking one goal out of the team this season if he goes

[Newcastleclaret93]

Surely not. Why would the club allow that???

Could be ********, just randoms suggesting that.

But I imagine when would signed his new contract he asked for it to be put in case a bigger club came along?

Just spit balling

[ClaretMov]

I heard 20m.

It's 25

[Burnley1989]

I refuse to believe the clause is 7-10m considering we bought him for 15m.

Ditto, I’d be amazed

[taio]

Don't believe the hype

[KefkaClaret]

Honestly if Wood is going we should try and get some money for Tarkowski, nothing will prevent us going down this season.

[Vegas Claret]

If it's Percy it's probably happening

[DCWat]

Well if we weren’t going down before we certainly are now.

It sounds like a transfer that we may well not have been prepared for, if it’s the activation of a release clause.

Chris Wood on good form, would be a miss. Chris Wood in this seasons form - less of a miss.

[Boss Hogg]

Keep the faith we could always stick Kevin Long up top with Dale Stephens playing just behind.

[Burnley1989]

It was only the other day Chris Boden said it definitely wasn’t happening, always got to be careful making statements like that, they have a habit of biting you on the arse

[Burnley1989]

Keep the faith we could always stick Kevin Long up top with Dale Stephens playing just behind.

Exactly

[HahaYeah]

Don't want this to happen but at least it's early on in the window.

[Milltown1882]

It was only the other day Chris Boden said it definitely wasn’t happening, always got to be careful making statements like that, they have a habit of biting you on the arse

As soon as Boden said it wasn’t happening it was a done deal.

[Pearcey]

Jay Rod, Vydra and Lennon put of contract soon as well. We need strikers and we need them quickly!!

[WiscoClaret]

If it's Percy it's probably happening

I just saw this too and heard it’s a VERY reliable source. I came here to ask if they were reliable.

I hope Wood isn’t going. Heard the fee was 22m on his release clause. Tripp’s and him have the same agent.


In other news I heard Taylor Booth on loan from Bayern Munich with an option to buy. Just speculation but, it fits the boxes. From Utah, American, creative up and coming midfielder.

[randomclaret2]

Could be ********, just randoms suggesting that.

But I imagine when would signed his new contract he asked for it to be put in case a bigger club came along?

Just spit balling

I've said nowt

[ksrclaret]

Has anyone heard from Paul Waine?

EXCITING TIMES

[OakworthClaret]

Boden confirmed

[Shaggy]

Not overly fussed if we get £20m.. as long as we use the money can get in someone like Alfredo Morelos for half that.

[randomclaret2]

As soon as Boden said it wasn’t happening it was a done deal.

Boden now confirming Wood is en route to Newcastle

[MACCA]

Prepare for the championship, I posted this to Alan on Sunday...

Think 30m for Tarky and Wood would be good business, and I'd be bringing in

Ben Davies Liverpool, ex PNE captain, 26, left sided CB. They got for 2.5m last Jan, so 7m should do it.

Dan Neil, Sunderland , 20 CM 3m

Lyndon Dykes QPR 26 ST, 10m , mobile target man 17 in 53 for QPR, 6 in 20 for Scotland

Fulgini , Angers, 25 Number 10, Attacking Mid, represented France at every level upto under 21, Ivorian, so knows Maxwell, available for 10m.

4 in should cover by the 2 leaving easily

Play Collins for Tarky, new lad back up, groom him to replace Mee from the summer onwards in the championship.

Start setting us up now to bounce straight back up.
We don't want to be flapping about on August 30th.

Hopefully it all happens although if we get 25m for Wood, there's more cash to land another player in preparation.

[WiscoClaret]

[Milltown1882]

Boden now confirming Wood is en route to Newcastle

Get in! The deal must be off

[Vegas Claret]

I just saw this too and heard it’s a VERY reliable source. I came here to ask if they were reliable.

Fabrizzio Romano has tweeted it too so it's on 100% (Wood not Booth)

[Newcastleclaret93]

Can’t help but feel that is the nail in the coffin of this season.

Wood scored 9 goals in 15 games last season that kept us up.

I can’t see where the goals are going to come from now

[RVclaret]

Interesting times. He’ll do well alongside the pace and movement of ASM. I hope we spend the money wisely now on new Championship ready players.

[burnleymik]

This is truly grim for us, losing our main striker, to one of our main rivals at this stage of the season. I know Wood wasn't in form, but look at our options now............

[Milltown1882]

How fast can we get Cornet back from Africa?

[Jimmymaccer]

It’s on sky sports news now….they’ve met the £20m release fee and he’s travelling north now for medical.

[Milltown1882]

This is truly grim for us, losing our main striker, to one of our main rivals at this stage of the season. I know Wood wasn't in form, but look at our options now............

Would love to see how many goals Barnes, Jay and Vydra have scored combined in the last 2 years vs what Wood has in that time.

[nyclaret]

Now we can sign Brereton.

[Milltown1882]

£22mil clause. Transfer that straight to Blackburn Rovers for Brereton please.

[ewanrob]

That'll pay off a bit of the MD Loan then, absolutely shocking state of affairs....Cornershop Mentality our great old club.

[MACCA]

It's 25

I wasn't wrong in 2021, I'm not going to break so early in 2022...

[bobinho]

Well if we weren’t going down before we certainly are now.

Because a striker who hasn’t been scoring for most of the season won’t be scoring for the rest of the season?

It’s deeper than that I feel.

[Vegas Claret]

That'll pay off a bit of the MD Loan then, absolutely shocking state of affairs....Cornershop Mentality our great old club.

it's a release clause - we had ZERO say in the matter after it was put in place.

[Iloveyoubrady]

It’s a release clause. Don’t blame the owners, they weren’t even in charge when Wood signed his contract. Although I don’t think £22 million for a 30 year old non firing striker is a bad deal for us. £22 million can still buy you quite a lot, look at cornet for £13. We need to reinvest this wisely.

[nyclaret]

Right lads... who do we sign to replace him?

[burnleymik]

Right lads... who do we sign to replace him?

Is Crouch available?

[RVclaret]

Nketiah on loan would be a wise choice now with the option to buy. Almost guaranteed to start. Then use the remaining funds to put towards 2/3 young promising players that will do well in the Championship. Dan Neil 3m for example.

What will more than likely happen is lumps Kieffar Moore or Lyndon Dykes for 10m. Or Ighalo on a free.

[Paul Waine]

Has anyone heard from Paul Waine?

EXCITING TIMES

Hi ksr, just reading the news, like everyone else.

I bought my ticket for Arsenal yesterday morning. £11.25 for a senior and, as I live down in London area, my "freedom pass" means I've no travel costs. Seemed a very good price at the time...

Now, I'm wondering who will be in the Burnley team...

But, if the club agreed a release clause with Chris Wood it's a number they've always been aware of. Maybe there are other things that will happen if Chris Wood moves up to Newcastle.

UTC

[burnleymik]

Two huge winnable games upcoming. Cornet away. Wood sold. Vydra.. who knows, so we are going to see Lennon and Jayrod up front, aren't we? (barring covid casualties) That's not good.

I'm sure there are other things that will happen.

None of them good, mind.

[elwaclaret]

Some favour that agent is doing Burnley.

“Here’s Tripps, I have another one moulded by Burnley with a release of £20 and that will pretty much fk them up for my usual commission…”

[Shaggy]

It’s not that bad a deal. £22m is profit and he’s been rank rotten this season. Jay/Vydra have hardly played as Wood has been the golden boy as far as Dyche is concerned.

As long as we don’t go and pay silly money for the likes of Lyndon Dykes then this can be positive if we use it properly. Morelos for me please.
