Burnley boss Sean Dyche says he isn't thinking about new contract talks.

Dyche's contract, which has 18 months remaining, could be one of the early items on the agenda for the new owners. But in the January transfer window the Burnley boss insists the priority must be with the players.

“I'm not thinking about it, and I'm sure they're not," he said of his contract, which expires in the summer of 2022.

"We're all thinking about the playing squad, looking after the players that we want to keep, making sure we're keyed into the next level of players we can bring in.

"And beyond that there's the bigger picture of the football club and how it can moved forward."

He added: "They've got to get used to me, how I operate, if they think that's appropriate, likewise me with them.

"At this stage I think we're getting on with the team, I think that's the main focus. The window's coming - what could be a very important window, depending - so we're getting on with that side of things."
