Harwood-Bellis wants to stay in the Premier League after Southampton’s relegation

The defender helped Burnley win promotion under Vincent Kompany during a spell on loan from Manchester City in the 2022-23 season.

And now the Clarets are interested in buying him — or, more likely, taking him on a loan deal with an option to buy.

West Ham are also big admirers of Harwood-Bellis, 23.

But they have a limited budget and would only make a move if they sell and need to fill a hole.

Burnley have lost CJ Egan-Riley to Marseille for nothing at the end of his contract.

The 22-year-old quit because they would not pay a huge agent’s fee.

Harwood-Bellis is facing a season in the Championship with Saints, so a second spell at promoted Burnley would suit him.

Meanwhile, Clarets skipper Josh Brownhill is yet to commit to a new deal.

The 29-year-old midfielder and his adviser are looking for a big pay day.
