Burnley are prepared to risk losing Michael Keane for nothing when his contract ends in 2018 rather than sell him for a cut-price fee at the end of this season.
The Clarets are already anticipating summer interest in their 24-year-old defender, who was last week nominated for the PFA Young Player of the Year accolade following a stellar campaign where he has also broken into Gareth Southgate's England team.
Burnley manager Sean Dyche has rubbished a report that Keane's departure this summer has already been determined, though as one of the country's top young centre-backs he is unlikely to be short of admirers.
