Vincent Kompany says Burnley are not feeling sorry for themselves despite another star asset being on the verge of departing.
Maxwell Cornet is set for a move to West Ham United, with the Hammers activating a release clause of £17.5million for the Ivory Coast international. Cornet, 25, was one of the few Burnley players to come out of last season with much credit as he contributed nine goals in the Clarets' ultimately unsuccessful Premier League relegation battle.
When the move is rubber-stamped, Cornet will become the latest star player to leave Turf Moor in a summer that has seen them poached of their best talents. Goalkeeper Nick Pope left for Newcastle in a £10m deal whilst Nathan Collins was signed by Wolves for double that amount. Long-serving centre-halves Ben Mee and James Tarkowski left on frees, joining Brentford and Everton respectively whilst the Toffees also moved for Dwight McNeil after forking out £20m for the winger.
