Burnley bid $13.9M for Carl Rushworth
The offer went to Everton this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

John Allen steps up from the Burnley academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. John Allen has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
