According to the latest report from the authoritative French media outlet "L'Equipe", Premier League relegated team Burnley has officially joined the chase for Nantes striker Apua. The 20-year-old striker has attracted the attention of a number of clubs, including Serie B side Palermo and Swiss side Berne Young Boys, thanks to his outstanding performance in the Nantes first team last season.
Burnley was unfortunately relegated to the Championship last season, but they did not give up their dream of returning to the Premier League. In order to enhance their competitiveness in the new season, Burnley's management decided to strengthen their squad by bringing in reinforcements, and Apua is one of the targets they are looking at. The young striker not only possesses excellent physical quality and technical ability, but also shows great potential, and is regarded as a new star in the future soccer world.
However, it has not been all plain sailing for Burnley in their pursuit of Apua. They are facing stiff competition from clubs such as Palermo and Bernese youngsters. Palermo, in particular, have submitted an offer of around €2 million for Apua, showing a strong will to buy. Bernese youngsters, the powerhouse of Swiss soccer, are also interested in the young striker and have joined the battle.
Apua started his career in the Paris Saint-Germain youth system, and after years of development and training, he has gradually made a name for himself in the Nantes first team. Last season, he made 4 appearances for Nantes, and although his opportunities were limited, he managed to impress every time he played. His outstanding performance not only won the fans' favor, but also attracted the attention of many clubs.
For Burnley, the successful introduction of Apua would be a major addition to the strength of the squad. However, in the face of such fierce competition, they must act quickly to make a competitive offer in a bid to stand out in this battle. At the same time, they also need to conduct in-depth negotiations with FC Nantes in a bid to reach a consensus on key issues such as the transfer fee and the length of the contract.
