Basilio Rieno Socoliche, a midfielder for Crystal Palace who is 18 years old, has been signed by Burnley to a two-year

contract.

Socoliche, who Palace referred to as a number 10, had been working there for two years after spending two years at Watford.

He has participated in Premier League 2 throughout those two years for both their under-18 and under-21 teams.

He has also earned a spot on Equatorial Guinea’s under-18 national team.

Socoliche will now join Burnley’s under-21 team under Andy Farrell.

Other clubs are also keen on Vranckx though and Kompany may have to present a convincing pitch to the player.

It is something he will work on this evening as, according to French journalist Loic Tanzi, he is due to call Vranckx.

If Burnley can persuade Vranckx that heading to Turf Moor is the right move, then they can set about putting an agreement

in place with Wolfsburg.
