Burnley Join Sunderland and Crystal Palace in Race for Norwich's Robbie Brady

Published on: 14 January 2017

"?Norwich star Robbie Brady has been made available for Premier League clubs in this January transfer window, and it seems likely that the left winger would be happy to accept. The Canaries are only managing to match the pace of the play-off contenders in the Championship.


Sunderland and Crystal Palace are interested in the midfielder, with Palace having already had a £10m bid rebuffed by the club. The Black Cats are concerned about the possible loss of left-sided player Patrick van Aanholt (again, to Palace).

Enter Burnley. Sean Dyche's men are proving more than adequate in their return to the Premier League, hosting Southampton in Saturday's meeting with an opportunity to jump into ninth place.


The club have submitted a £13m bid for Brady according to the "?Mirror, and look set to fight to secure him. Norwich are willing to let the player go in order to raise funds, though Hull would also receive 25% on account of the sell-on clause when they sold him to Norwich in 2015.

Burnley's home at Turf Moor has been absolutely vital in their Premier League success; they have managed just one point away from home all season. 


With Southampton struggling for form in the league (though they did beat Liverpool in the EFL Cup first leg), a great opportunity to capitalise awaits.
