Burnley to bid for Bristol City defender Joe Bryan?

Burnley will reportedly make an approach for Bristol City defender Joe Bryan ahead of the start of the next campaign, with the Clarets set to feature in Europe.

Bristol City defender Joe Bryan has allegedly emerged as a summer transfer target for Burnley.

The Clarets are one point away from securing an appearance in the Europa League qualifying rounds for next season, and it has seemingly resulted in manager Sean Dyche already looking at ways to strengthen his squad.

According to The Telegraph, the Burnley boss is mulling over whether to bid in the region of £6m for Bryan, who has impressed in the Championship this season.

Bryan has contributed four goals and three assists in 42 appearances at the second tier, while Dyche is reportedly an admirer of the 24-year-old's ability to play at left-back and in midfield.

The player has been with Bristol City since the start of his career but just over a year remains on the academy graduate's contract, potentially leaving the Robins in a position where they must consider selling one of their star men.

In total, Bryan has scored 19 goals in 227 outings in all competitions.
