Premier League-bound Burnley will need to bolster their latest bid of £2.5million (€2.8m) to snare Ireland striker Michael Obafemi.

Swansea City manager Russell Martin is resigned to losing the 22-year-old in this window after the consequences of transfer speculation on the player led to him being frozen out of the first-team picture.
