Clarets boss Sean Dyche gave little away, saying: “We still want to bring people in, still want to freshen, so we’re active in that. “That’s the tough side of it at the moment, we have got money, and yet some of the deals other clubs are doing are massive for the Championship.
“But we’re still trying to support and challenge the group. We still want to reinforce, we are still at it.
“There has been a couple of deals which have gone away from us and a couple got closer, simple as that.”
