Burnley boss Sean Dyche has told Danny Ings he's too good for Real Sociedad. Ings is in pre-contract talks with La Real.
"I think we all know his development needs to continue and that's in the Premier League," he told Goals on Sunday.
"The middle of La Liga is no use for a young player, I don't personally think so - albeit it is a great standard. I think he's better than that. I think he's top end of the Premier League.
"He would only move abroad for financial reasons. It's not for development. His development is top end of the Premier League. It's the most powerful league in the world.
"His aspirations, as they should be, are to play for his national side and he definitely wants to play for England. I think his journey is in the Premier League.
"That's not letting us (Burnley) down, that's just the reality of the market we are in. The other night if you were watching him at Old Trafford, I would be knocking on the door if I was those sort of clubs."
