Newly promoted Premier League outfit Ipswich Town are reportedly in 'advanced' talks to sign Bafana Bafana forward Lyle Foster on a season-long loan deal from Burnley.

The 23-year-old forward played an integral part in helping the Clarets return to the English topflight during the 2022/23 campaign, but ultimately the Turf Moor outfit found the going tough and were relegated back to the Championship.

Ipswich, back in the Premier League after 22 years thanks to consecutive promotions, have already faced tough defeats to Liverpool and defending champions Manchester City.

Meanwhile, South African striker Foster, currently the country's most expensive transfer after Burnley acquired him for 11 million from KVC Westerlo in January 2023, could soon be part of a massive deal.

Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri reported that Foster is nearing a loan move to Premier League newcomers Ipswich, with an obligation to buy for a staggering 30 million (R594 million).
