Coyle clause means Burnley expect £3M from Bolton

Burnley will expect £3 million compensation from Bolton Wanderers for manager Owen Coyle.

Coyle will deliver his decision to Burnley chairman Barry Kilby this morning after asking to think things over last night.

The Daily Mail says it appears Coyle is keen to return to the club where he enjoyed two and a half seasons as a player but for that to happen Bolton will have to come up with more than £3million in compensation.

That clause was inserted into the Burnley manager's contract when he signed a 12-month extension to his existing three-year deal in the summer, having turned down boyhood club Celtic.
