West Ham midfielder James Ward-Prowse is expected to undergo a medical with Burnley on Wednesday as he closes in on a loan move.
Ward-Prowse, 31, joined the Hammers from Southampton in August 2023 and has made 78 appearances.
The England international was loaned to Nottingham Forest for the 2024-25 season and played 10 times under then manager Nuno Espirito Santo, but the deal was cut short during the winter transfer window.
He was a regular under former West Ham manager Graham Potter and made six appearances this season before Potter was sacked in September.
Ward-Prowse has not played a single minute of football since Nuno was brought in at West Ham.
Burnley sit 19th in the Premier League and are 10 points from safety following Saturday’s 2-2 draw against Tottenham. The 18th-placed Hammers are five points above the Clarets.
Burnley manager Scott Parker brought in 18-year-old defender Cameron Scott from Rangers earlier this month but is looking to add experience with Ward-Prowse.
Ward-Prowse came through Southampton’s academy and made 410 appearances before leaving for West Ham.
