Burnley have edge on Man Utd, Liverpool in Verbruggen battle

Burnley are jumping into the battle for Anderlecht goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen.

The Dutch youngster is being watched by Manchester United and Liverpool this season, while Burnley are also keen, says The Sun.

And the Clarets have an advantage given manager Vincent Kompany's relationship with his former club.

The Belgian spent two years in charge of Anderlecht before moving to Burnley last summer. He has them now on the brink of a return to the Premier League.

Anderlecht want around £15million for Verbruggen, who was called up by Holland for their Euro 2024 qualifiers against France and Gibraltar.
