New Burnley chairman Pace says Dyche will be supported in January market

Burnley boss Sean Dyche will have money to spend this month after the arrival of new owners ALK Capital.

Dyche will be relieved the takeover is complete before the transfer window opens, since the manager has been forced to operate on limited resources so far this season.

"We have been very, very big fans of Sean for some time," said incoming chairman Alan Pace, who is expected to meet with Dyche today. "The longevity and stability of the management side has been something that has been very impactful from our perspective of the playing style and ability to perform at the level that they have."

"We are very prepared to come in and support Sean and the management team," added Pace, speaking to the club's website.

"We need time to get in understand more what their needs are, what they are planning for… where they are desiring to go to.

"We are fully prepared to back the manager."
