Burnley’s new summer signing Luca Koleosho has been tipped as a future star afters fast start to life at Turf Moor.
Burnley‘s Italy under-20 star Luca Koleosho has been praised heavily following his performance over Nottingham Forest on Monday.
The winger was seen tearing the Forest defence apart with his dribbling in the 1-1 draw.
Koleosho is rumoured to have only cost the Clarets £2.3 million which is a bargain in this market.
He was heavily involved in Burnley’s goal on Monday as he left Joe Worrall for dead with his pace before setting it on a plate for Zeki Amdouni to finish.
The youngster dominated Forest’s World Cup winning full-back who Steve Cooper hooked off in the second half.
Koleosho praised
His performance was so good, it prompted former Liverpool man Danny Murphy to rave about him.
Commenting on the game for talkSport, Murphy said: “He could be the bargain of the century given what we’ve seen in this first half.”
“He’s grown into the game, as Burnley have,” Murphy added.
“But what he’s got is wonderful pace, a willingness to run without the ball into space which you always need but not every winger wants to do that. When you’ve got those two attributes, you’re a problem.
“He’s happy to go on his left and go inside, he’s a real problem for the full-back. He looks completely free, he looks like he’s really enjoying himself.”
Murphys colleague Adrian Durham also added “He has tormented Montiel in the first-half,” at half-time.
