BURNLEY have announced the signing of former Saints attacker Nathan Redmond after expressing their interest in Nathan

Redmond joins Burnley on a two-year deal with an option for a third after a season with Besiktas.

Prior to joining the Turkish side the 29 year old spent six seasons on the south coast with Southampton, during which time

he made 232 appearances.

Speaking after joining Burnley, Redmond said: “I always had aspirations to play again in the Premier League. Burnley’s

project matches with my ambitions.

“The management team feel like they can enhance my game more and see the value I can bring on and off the field. It feels

like a perfect match.”

Redmond’s arrival at the Clarets comes after they previously expressed an interest in signing Tella on a permanent transfer.

The 24 year old spent last season on loan at the recently promoted side, where he scored 19 goals across 45 games in all

 

competitions.

However, Burnley are reportedly unwilling to reach Southampton’s valuation of the winger.

Premier League club Burnley have completed the signing of former Southampton winger Nathan Redmond –  following

multiple bids for Sunderland’s Jack Clarke.

The Clarets’ latest offer for Clarke was reported to be in the region of £9million, which was significantly below the Black
Cats’ valuation.
After joining Sunderland on a permanent deal from Tottenham last summer, the 22-year-old scored 11 goals and provided 14

assists in all competitions during the 2022/23 campaign.

Vincent Kompany’s Burnley side were promoted to the top-flight last term and have been looking to strengthen their wide

options.

The Clarets have now announced the signing of Redmond on a free transfer, after the 29-year-old spent a year at Turkish

side Besiktas.

Burnley are also said to be close to agreeing a deal for Italian youth international Luca Koleosho from Espanyol, amid
speculation The Clarets are trying to re-sign Nathan Tella from Southampton on a permanent deal.
Tella helped Burnley win promotion to the Premier League during a loan spell at Turf Moor last season, scoring 17

Championship goals.

The 24-year-old has two years left on his contract at Southampton, who are said to value the winger at £15million.

Burnley’s pursuit of the aforementioned players suggests their interest in Clarke has cooled.

The 22-year-old is known to be happy at Sunderland and hasn’t been pushing for a move despite this summer’s interest.

The Athletic have also reported The Clarents were trying to sign Millwall’s Zian Flemming, yet that deal is also ‘unlikely’ due

to different valuations.
