The news regarding Connor Roberts remaining at Turf Moor will come as no surprise as Burnley look to rebuild ahead of next season.
- Burnley are facing a season in the Championship after suffering relegation – it’s time for a fresh start and possible managerial changes.
- Connor Roberts’ return could be crucial for Burnley’s promotion push – his experience and skills will be valuable in the upcoming season.
- Stability and Championship experience are key for Burnley’s upcoming season – retaining players like Roberts will be vital for success.
Burnley prepare for a return to the Championship following their relegation from the Premier League.
Vincent Kompany’s Clarets endured a rather miserable campaign this season as they managed to pick up just 24 points, which saw them finish 19th in the table and become one of the three clubs to suffer relegation immediately after earning promotion.
Preparations are now underway for next season as the club look to earn an immediate return to the top flight in the 2024/25 campaign. The club will surely undergo a big rebuild this summer, and that may include the man in charge. Kompany is currently a hot topic regarding the vacant managerial role at Bayern Munich as he is said to be Bayern’s preferred choice to become their new boss, which leaves Burnley in a strange situation.
The club may well have to find a new boss to take them into a new era, but alongside that they must ensure they go into next season with a squad capable of promotion.
Burnley’s retained list was published last week (21st of May), and it stated that a number of players were returning from their loan spells, including Connor Roberts, who could play a huge part in Burnley’s promotion push next season.
Connor Roberts to remain at Burnley
Roberts has been on the books at Turf Moor for the last three years, and while he started this season as Burnley’s first-choice right-back, his game time began to decline and by January it was time for him to depart on loan.
