Liverpool Transfer News: Bid Accepted For Defender, Player Set For Medical This Weekend

Liverpool defender Jon Flanagan is set to spend the 2016-17 season at newly promoted Burnley on a season-long loan, pending the results of a medical.

The Reds have reportedly accepted a bid from Burnley to sign Flanagan last month but the move was held with the defender taking his time to assess his future move.

According to the Daily Mail, Burnley are hoping to seal the deal shortly. The 23-year-old has decided to make a move to Turf Moor and he is likely to undergo a medical this weekend.

Flanagan returned to action towards the end of last season after recovering from a nightmare injury that kept him out for nearly two years.
