  5. 'I didn't want to leave Feyenoord for just any team'

    Burnley's summer signing Quilindschy Hartman says it felt like he was "cheating" on Feyenoord when he agreed his move to Turf Moor, but he thought he needed a "new environment" after 15 years at the Eredivisie club.

    The 23-year-old defender has been speaking about moving to east Lancashire, the club's ethos, why the Premier League is on a par with playing in the Champions League and why he would not have made the move if unable to bring his dog with him.

    "Scott Parker told me this is a special team in the talks we had before me signing," Hartman told BBC Radio Lancashire's Dan Jewell. "When I came in on my first day, I could immediately see it.

    "I can see this is a good group with nice people. Everyone is talking to each other, there are no groups and you have no specific place at dinner, so every time you are coming into contact with a different person.

    "If you have a good connection off the pitch then it is going to be easier to work for each other on the pitch. If someone loses the ball, I will be happy to run for them and try to recover it."

    Montenegro defender Andrija Vukcevic has joined up with Preston North End for a week-long trial at their training camp in Valencia.

    The 28-year-old, who has 18 international caps, is without a club after leaving Mexican side FC Juarez in July.

    He spent last season on loan to Spanish side FC Cartagena, making 23 appearances in LaLiga2, plus one in their Copa del Rey match against SD Beasain.

    Vukcevic could face a Spanish team during his trial with the Lilywhites as North End's training week will culminate with a pre-season friendly against Getafe.

    Burnley's owners Velocity Sport Limited have agreed a deal to acquire La Liga side Espanyol.

    It means the Clarets become the latest team to join the multi-club ownership model a number of teams in the Premier League already have.

    Espanyol play in the top tier of Spanish football, where they finished 14th last season, two points above the relegation zone.

    The two clubs will continue to run separately but will now be part of the same ownership group.

    "With this deal, RC Espanyol and Burnley will be part of this investment group, which expands its interests by having a club in La Liga and another in the Premier League - although each will remain independent," Espanyol said in a statement.

    Velocity Sport Limited, the sports investment arm of ALK Capital, took over Burnley in December 2020.
