Burnley boss Sean Dyche insists James Tarkowski could stay next season.

The Clarets rejected three bids from West Ham and another from Leicester in 2020 and Dyche does not expect the club to sell in the coming months either, despite the centre back only having a year left on his contract.

"We have open lines of communication with him and his agent, as we do with all the players, and as far as I'm concerned he's a Burnley player," Dyche said.

"Contractual situations are private and personal, or they should be, they're often not, but he's been fantastic.

"He [Tarkowski] knows my thoughts on his future here, he knows I want him here.

"He knows his contract is where it is, everyone knows that, but he'll be here as far as I'm concerned, it's simple.

"If someone wants to write a cheque for an immeasurable amount then that might be different, but at the moment he's a Burnley player and he's done very well again for us this season. He's a quality player."
