Burnley are set to win the race to sign free-agent Han-Noah Massengo, with the Turf Moor side in advanced talks.
According to L’Equipe, Vincent Kompany’s side are in pole position to sign talented Frenchman Han-Noah Massengo.
The report continues that Burnley had made the midfielder a priority in recent weeks as they looked to bolster their midfield.
Massengo has been linked with numerous clubs this window, and Burnley’s name has been there throughout.
Having departed Bristol City on a free in July, Massengo has taken his time when deciding on his next club, but it now seems that Burnley will win the race.
Massengo also impressed last season despite being shipped off on loan to Auxerre in France.
It is believed that Burnley beat Leeds’ interest to secure the signature of a true luxury player who has all the talent to reach the upper echelons of the sport.
Burnley will be hoping that his effect will be substantial in helping them move off zero points in the league.
What effect will Massengo have at Burnley
Massengo is a talented French midfielder who arrived in England back in 2019 for what was a big money move.
Departing Monaco for Bristol, Massengo was tipped with being a potential world beater in the Championship.
Despite being their best player for years until Alex Scott’s emergence, Massengo never quite lived up to his hype.
This is an issue Kompany will be hoping to fix if he comes to Turf Moor in the next few days.
A quality on the ball midfielder, he is perfect for the current system Burnley play, we are excited to see if this move comes off.
