TWTD understands Town are closing in on the completion of the signing of Zian Flemming from Burnley.

After protracted negotiations, the clubs have agreed an overall package ultimately worth up to £20 million with £3 million in somewhat aspirational add-ons.

Flemming is currently undergoing his medical with the move expected to be completed before tonight’s 11pm deadline.

TWTD revealed this morning that Flemming was travelling to Suffolk for his medical and to complete the formalities relating to the switch with the clubs tying up the loose ends of the terms of the deal.

Those discussions have continued throughout the day with the deal now finally done and the player currently having his medical.

Flemming is set to become the 14th and final senior signing of the summer.

Aside from Chieo Ogbene's loan move to Lincoln City, which is expected to be confirmed later this evening, the Flemming move is the last movement of the transfer window. Earlier today, Cameron Humphreys and Tudor Mendel completed loan exits to Huddersfield and Luton respectively.

Alex Palmer, Anis Mehmeti and Jack Taylor remain at the club despite links with Championship sides.

Town have 27 senior players with veteran keeper David Button having been retained as a training keeper who may play for the U21s as an overage player and not included in the squad. Youngsters Abdoul Ouattara and Sindre Walle Egeli don't count towards the squad as they are under 21.

Flemming had been tipped for a move away from Turf Moor all summer following Burnley’s relegation to the Championship with Everton, Lille and Brentford having been linked.

The Dutchman joined the Lancastrians from Millwall in August 2024, initially on loan with the move made permanent for £7 million the following summer.

Last season, Amsterdam-born Flemming netted 12 times in total, 11 in the Premier League, and this term bagged three in his first two matches.

He started his career with hometown club Ajax, featuring for their reserves side before moving on to PEC Zwolle in 2018, spending time on loan at NEC before joining Fortuna Sittard in 2020, prior to his switch to Millwall two years later.
