Burnley boss Vincent Kompany has revealed that winger Maxwel Cornet is not set to feature for the Clarets in their Championship match against Luton Town on Saturday.
Football.London understands that West Ham United today had a bid of £17.5million for Cornet accepted by the Clarets and that the Ivory Coast international is due in London on Thursday evening to complete a medical ahead of a move to the London Stadium.
Earlier on Thursday, Kompany spoke to the media about Cornet’s future ahead of the Clarets’ second Championship game of the season at home to Luton Town on Saturday afternoon. Asked about Cornet, Kompany admitted that his focus was on players available and that he does not expect to have Cornet with him this weekend.
