Michael Obafemi is undergoing his medical at Burnley as the Premier League-bound outfit close in a loan deal for the Republic of Ireland striker with an option to buy.

Swansea City manager Russell Martin was willing to part with the 22-year-old in this window once Vincent Kompany’s side stumped up the asking price and it’s understood a fee of €4m will be paid in the summer after his temporary spell expires.
