BURNLEY boss Sean Dyche says his summer transfer business is far from over as he looks for strength in numbers for the new season.

The Clarets boss made a double swoop last week to land Scott Arfield and Ryan Noble on free transfers, with former Wigan midfielder David Jones also expected to turn his trial into a permanent deal.

But although Dyche reinforced the need to be cautious with the club’s coffers in a generally low key summer so far in the Championship, he says there is more work to be done in the market.

“I don’t think there’s an enormous amount of money available but we’re still trying to look at a couple of other things,” said the Burnley boss.

“They’re not big transfers as in fees.

“We’ll have to play accordingly to how the market presents itself and that’s what we’re trying to do quietly behind the scenes and trying to get things that can align with the club and the finances of the club, and that’s been the hardest part.

“We’ve not got deep pockets at the moment so we have to shop wisely but it’s important that we get the right characters in as well as the right players.”

Dyche has so far made six new signings this summer, four of them goalkeepers with the club requiring a complete overhaul of that department following the release of Brian Jensen and Jon Stewart, and Lee Grant’s move to Derby County.

Tom Heaton and Alex Cisak have been brought in on free transfers to challenge for the number one spot, while former Darlington stopper Nick Liversedge and young Australian Daniel Nizic have also been added to the ranks from a development perspective.

Joseph Mills signed a two-year deal, which was agreed as part of his loan move from Reading under previous boss Eddie Howe last season.

Former Huddersfield midfielder Arfield was signed on a two-year deal after impressing on trial, while striker Noble agreed a one-year contract following his release from Sunderland to become Dyche’s first outfield captures last week.

“They were two different types brought in for different reasons,” said Dyche of the duo.

“It’s important that they come in and hit the ground running and get on with the group, so we’ll see how that develops.

“If you actually went for what you’d call first team players we’re round about 18 at the minute, and that’s a very small squad for the division.

“We had a smallish squad last year and used the least amount of players so we have to make sure they’re the right types and they can sometimes do more than one job. They have to sometimes be used in other areas.”
