Earlier on Monday, Foot Mercato broke the news about Burnley being close on signing Zeki Amdouni from FC Basel.
It was claimed there were advanced discussions for the centre-forward to join the Clarets, as he was ‘seduced’ by the chance of making the move.
Now Santi Aouna, the same journalist who had written the first reports, now comes up to Twitter to bring more details about the transfer.
That means Basel is making a big profit with Amdouni. The Swiss side had him on loan from Lausanne-Sport last season, and just made his move permanent for only €4m.
Since they had just bought the player and saw him signing a four-year contract, they were obviously in a very favourable position to make a big request.
Now Burnley adds an exciting centre-forward to the squad, with him having scored 22 goals in the last season for Basel.
