Sean Dyche stands to make millions of pounds if Dwight McNeil or any of Burnley's other academy products are sold while he is at the club.

McNeil attracted interest from Tottenham last summer, but the club failed to match Burnley's £40m valuation, a sale price that would have netted Dyche £2m if the transfer had taken place.
