Gerard Posted 21 January 2017 Share Posted 21 January 2017 I can see why Burnley would sell. Keane has 18 months left on his contract and if they don't sell him this window then in the summer Keane might just decide to see his contract out and leave on a Bosman in 2018. 18 months left on a contract might be the pivot point when the power begins to swing from the club to the player.

Especially as they are nearly safe this season. Cash in on Keane now and not lose him for a smaller fee in the summer or next Jan. Would be a perfect signing imo so hope there's something in it.

Burnley are quids in staying up and letting him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiFoxes Posted 21 January 2017 Share Posted 21 January 2017 After how this transfer window has been going, it's difficult for me to get very excited at "news" like this, but I do hope it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might not necessarily be about the wage. His agent may be insisting on a release clause, which considering we'be been stung recently by this, we are not willing to do.

I'm very happy with our transfer window so far. We've signed one of the best teenagers in the world in Ndidi for £15m and almost broke even by getting rid of deadwood in Schlupp and Hernandez. There are still 10 days left and I think only 14 players incoming so far for PL clubs so we're still ahead of the curve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiFoxes Posted 21 January 2017 Share Posted 21 January 2017 I'm concerned about our defensive situation. We need at least one CB and hopefully a RB and am just starting to get a little nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. 14 minutes ago, WiFoxes said: I'm concerned about our defensive situation. We need at least one CB and hopefully a RB and am just starting to get a little nervous. But also this. The weird thing about our defensive situation though is that Amartey and Ndidi can play CB if required and Amartey can also fill in at RB. So we are sort of covered. But they're not ideal replacements in those areas. We need specialists who can cover in those positions, not those who can 'do a job' there. I did fancy us to go all out for Trippier but I can't see Spurs letting him go either Jan or the summer, especially considering the recent rumour about Kyle Walker and Man Utd. I think Walker would jump ship if Utd finish top 4 and Spurs don't win the league. If we did manage to nab Keane in this window I do think it would go a long way to addressing our defensive frailties. After hearing about Acerbi on Thursday's RL Boot Room l would be quite pleased with him too. Both could be brilliant signings and would give Claudio a nice problem to have. But we'd still be short of a good RB to challenge Danny Simpson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul Posted 21 January 2017 Share Posted 21 January 2017 I've given up on signing him, he'll go to a big club in the summer. Would love it if it's true, but I can't see it. Hope we do have deals in the pipeline though, I'm starting to get very concerned about our defensive options (or lack thereof) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCFC hub Posted 21 January 2017 Share Posted 21 January 2017 Just don't see this happening, bigger clubs than us will be after him. Think he'd maybe come if we had a stupid release clause though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
