Ward-Prowse Set for Burnley Medical Ahead of Loan

Football

West Ham midfielder James Ward-Prowse is expected to complete a medical at Burnley today ahead of a loan transfer until the season's end.

West Ham midfielder James Ward-Prowse is expected to undergo a medical at Burnley on Wednesday, January 28, ahead of a loan move. The 31-year-old is set to join the Clarets until the end of the current season, with no option to buy included in the deal, according to various reports.

Ward-Prowse has not featured regularly under West Ham manager Nuno Espirito Santo this campaign. He has made only a handful of appearances for the London club since September. His departure signals a clear-out of players not in Nuno's plans.

Burnley, currently second from bottom in the Premier League, are looking to bolster their squad as they fight against relegation. The Clarets are 10 points adrift of safety after 23 games. This transfer could mark their first signing of the January window.
