Burnley boss Sean Dyche preparing for busy summer: 'Recruitment is a massive thing... it looks to me like it is going to be a tough market'

Sean Dyche is expecting a busy summer as he looks to build on Burnley's successful first season back in the top flight.

The Clarets defied the odds on their return to the Premier League by avoiding the relegation fate they suffered in their previous two campaigns in the elite division in 2010 and 2015.

West Ham spoilt their end-of-season party slightly by winning 2-1 at Turf Moor on the final day but gloss could not really be taken off the club's highest league placing (16th) since 1975.
