Burton manager Gary Bowyer has admitted he does not expect Tyrese Shade to remain at the Pirelli Stadium beyond the end of the transfer window. This admission follows reports that Lincoln City have had multiple bids of around £2 million rejected. It is believed that Lincoln have made offers to Burton more than once, and that the £2 million fee is closer to what Burton wants than what they have already been offered. Bowyer stated he did not think Shade would stay and added that he anticipates receiving several bids in the next approximately three weeks.

Lincoln have had multiple bids in the region of £2m for Burton attacker and St. Kitts & Nevis international Tyrese Shade, 26, rejected. Another unnamed club has also had a significant offer for Shade rejected during this transfer window. The winger, who has 9 caps for his country, joined Burton in July 2025 and his contract runs until June 2027. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €250k.
