Burnley add European scout

Burnley have added a European scout to Sean Dyche's backroom staff.

Dyche previously admitted that Burnley did not have the scouting structure to target players in Europe but extra funds from promotion to the Premier League have now allowed him to bring in a specialist scout, as the club look to strengthen their squad in January.

"We've got more scouts than we had previously so we're in the market looking at all sorts of prospects," said co-chairman John Banaszkiewicz to the Lancashire Evening Telegraph.

"We have a European scout now so we're trying to look at other horizons and look a bit further afield from the UK."
