Bid accepted for Burnley target as West Ham United could seal cut-price £18m midfielder deal

And the latest transfer headlines in the top-flight sees the Clarets linked with an in-form non-league forward – Hyde United’s Paddy Lane.

Football Insider claim Sean Dyche’s men, alongside Sheffield United, are tracking Lane but he looks set to move elsewhere.

That is because National League clubs Stockport County, Altrincham, and Farsley Celtic have triggered the player’s five-figure release clause.

It is reported that there is also strong interest from League Two sides Tranmere Rovers and Port Vale, so Burnley will have to act fast if they want him at Turf Moor.
