Man Utd & McNeil suitors warned they need ‘war chest’, but Burnley boss Dyche admits sale could happen

The Clarets manager says those at Turf Moor are under no financial pressure to sell, but they will not stand in the way of any ambitious performers

Manchester United are among those being linked with Burnley winger Dwight McNeil, having previously seen him slip their academy net, and Clarets boss Sean Dyche admits that he may have to part with a prized asset if suitors find a transfer “war chest”.

The Clarets are under no financial pressure to sell any of their senior stars, but money talks in the recruitment market.

Dyche is aware of that, having brought in a £25 million ($31m) fee when selling Michael Keane to Everton in 2017, and is not about to hinder the progress of any ambitious performers.
