New Burnley manager Vincent Kompany has admitted that 'good offers have been made' for attacker Maxwel Cornet this summer amid reported interest from Nottingham Forest.
Premier League rivals Everton and Newcastle United have also been credited with an interest and the former, in particular, has been heavily linked. The Ivory Coast international has a release clause in his contract, which is active in this transfer window following Burnley's relegation to the Championship.
The 25-year-old missed the club's pre-season friendly against Shrewsbury Town on Friday night after not travelling to Shropshire despite training at the Clarets' Gawthorpe Hall training ground earlier in the day. Our colleagues at Lancs Live report that Cornet is 'being given time to assess his options' by talking to his family about the future.
