Burnley pushing to close deal for Forest midfielder Lansbury

Burnley boss Sean Dyche is tightlipped on their bid for Nottingham Forest midfielder Henri Lansbury.

Dyche has so far failed in a bid to land the 23-year-old midfielder with Forest determined to hold onto the former Arsenal man.

And the Clarets tactician wouldn't expand on whether a fresh offer will be made for a player who has missed the start of the season with injury.

"We have had links with individuals from everywhere, some on €40,000-a-week which I don't think is for us," said Dyche.

"I choose to speak about my own players and not anybody else's."
