The Clarets are yet to replace Vincent Kompany, following his departure to Bayern Munich. But, it’s now being reported that Burnley are in ‘advanced talks’ with former Fulham and Bournemouth manager Scott Parker. The ex-Chelsea, Tottenham and West Ham midfielder last managed Club Brugge, whom he left in March 2023. Parker is said to be the Clarets’ ‘preferred candidate’. Liam Rosenior, Frank Lampard and Ruud van Nistelrooy have all been linked this summer.
Blackburn Rovers man to stay
Tyrhys Dolan was linked with a move to Luton Town earlier this year, but it’s now being reported – by the Lancashire Telegraph – that he will stay at Ewood Park this summer. Dolan has entered the final year of his contract, with the 22-year-old having represented Blackburn 164 times since his move there in 2020. Dolan was in Preston North End’s academy, but did not get offered a professional contract at Deepdale.
Pompey bid rejected for midfielder
Portsmouth have reportedly had a big turned down for Standard Liege midfielder Aiden O’Neill. That is according to Guardian journalist Will Unwin, who claims an approach for the Australia international has been rejected. It is suggested, though, that the Belgian club are open to selling the former Melbourne City man. Plymouth Argyle have also been credited with interest, along with MLS and Turkish clubs. O’Neill previously played for Burnley and Fleetwood Town.
