Dyche says Burnley must be patient facing winter market

Burnley boss Sean Dyche says they must be patient heading into the January market.

Dyche said next month's window will be 'very difficult' given Burnley's limited spending power.

"I don't think there'll be £200m to spend, that's the reality of the club, it's very difficult to add someone," he said.

"It would be nice, but it's really difficult in January.

"Whether the lads need it or not, it's irrelevant, it's whether you can get them in.

“We are looking, but it's tough.

“We're not in and it's deal done, there are things we've got our ears to the ground on, but there's no guarantees.

“It's very difficult, the market has been incredibly difficult anyway, and then you add the January side of things.

“The big wheels that can turn often do, but the smaller ones have to wait and see when those wheels turn, so we have to be waiting to get our business done, rather than be proactive, because it's so difficult to be proactive.

“We've got to try and judge the market wisely."
