Promoted to the Premier League, Burnley are trying to strengthen themselves offensively. After recruiting Irishman Michael Obafemi (Swansea), the club trained by Vincent Kompany has a target in Switzerland.

According to our information, the English club is targeting the Swiss international Espoirs (15 caps, 9 goals) Zeki Amdouni. Aged 22, the latter plays in Basel (22 goals, 5 assists in 52 matches last season). Under contract until 2027, the Swiss was seduced by Kompany’s speech. Discussions are advanced between all parties. Burnley want to get ahead of the competition and close the deal in the next few days.
