According to sources for Football Insider, Burnley have made a move before the deadline to sign Union Berlin forward Andrej Ilic. The Premier League club is now hopeful of agreeing a late move to bring him to Turf Moor. Scott Parker hopes the addition of a new forward will help in the Clarets’ effort for survival, and Ilic has been identified as a primary target in the window’s final stage. Ilic has a contract at Union Berlin until 2027 and Burnley hope they can persuade the Bundesliga club into selling. His performances have attracted the attention of a number of clubs, including Celtic, but Burnley are moving quickly to complete the signing.

According to the Daily Record, interest from Burnley in Ilic has subsided, but the potential transfer is not ruled out. Union Berlin made Ilic's loan from Lille permanent in a £5m deal after a successful loan last season, but the move has been less successful this term.

Reports linking Union Berlin striker Andrej Ilic, 25, with a move have resurfaced, with speculation that he could join Burnley this month. According to Bild, Union would demand a fee for the attacker between £7 million and £10 million.

According to The Daily Record, Burnley is tracking Ilic.
