Ezekiel Fryers on Burnley's radar

Burnley manager Eddie Howe is hoping to secure the services of Manchester United defender Ezekiel Fryers on a loan basis, according to Sky Sports News.

The Burnley boss reportedly failed in an attempt to sign the 19-year-old during the January transfer window.

However, he is now ready to return with a second bid to add the centre-back to his squad.

Fryers's future at Old Trafford has been the subject of speculation in recent weeks following his reported snub of a new contract offer from the club.

His current deal is due to expire in the summer.
