‘s men are already hard at work preparing for the 2025-26 campaign.

And all four players will be familiar faces to fans after turning out for them this season on loan.

Marcus Edwards, Jaidon Anthony, Bashir Humphreys and Zian Flemming will all sign permanently after successful loan spells in the North West.

Edwards has starred for the club since in January.

He joined with an obligation to sign permanently for £8.5million – provided the Clarets won promotion.

Tottenham will benefit thanks to a 35 per cent sell-on clause they have on Edwards, who came through their academy.

Edwards, who was once compared to by Mauricio Pochettino, left Tottenham on a free transfer for Vitoria Guimaraes in 2019 – but with a 50 per cent sell-on included.

That clause was then passed on to Sporting when Edwards joined the Lisbon giants for Vitoria in 2022.

The figure was then reduced to 35 per cent as part of from Sporting to Spurs the following year.

Edwards has made 15 appearances for Burnley since being farmed out to the Lancashire side, scoring two goals.

The Clarets' promotion also sees them commit to buying Anthony from Bournemouth.

Anthony has spent the entire season on loan in the North West and will now join permanently for £8m.

Parker's side will also be bolstered by the permanent capture of both Humphreys and Flemming.

In total, the Clarets are shelling out almost £40m for the quartet.

Burnley's success this season was built on the back of a stunning defensive effort.

Parker's side has conceded just 15 goals in 44 league games and will now battle it out with Leeds for the title.
