Update

After an agreement was reached and all documents signed, James Ward-Prowse has been announced as the latest recruit at Burnley. The midfielder leaves West Ham after completing all formalities. With the deal now official, attention turns to when the new signing will debut for his new club. Burnley have won the race for James Ward-Prowse, who had been tracked by Everton earlier this month. Now that every aspect of the deal has been confirmed, the focus turns to preparing him for debut. The move is a clear signal of the club's ambition this season. In season 25/26, Burnley are conceding 1.91 goals per game (44 in 23 games), which points to a lack of control in midfield. James Ward-Prowse would be expected to calm things down and protect the back line better. Reports suggest West Ham are monitoring Harry Maguire, Antonin Kinsky and Yaser Asprilla whereas Burnley have not been associated with other players at this stage.
