The likes of Manuel Benson s🤡hone last season for the Clarets as they won promotion and K✅ompany clearly sees potential in Odobert.

The Clarets are looking 🥃to cement themselves back in the Premier League this se൩ason and have made a number of moves in the transfer market already.

And while Odobert might well be one for the future, Kompany clearly sees the potential♓ in the youngster.

A young talent to watch for Burnley fans

Burnley fans will have full trust in Vincent Kompany’s judgement on players and the signing of someone like Odobert will be exciting fo♚r those inside Turf Moor.

Odobert is very much an unknown quantity in England but there’s aꩵn obvious talent there. Troyes are l﷽osing a number of players this season after relegation, with Yasser Larouci another who has sealed a move to England.

For Burnley, they’ll hope Odobert is ꦫa ﷽small gamble that pays off in the long term.
