Chance analysis
Ipswich have made a substantial statement of intent with a £20m move for Flemming, bringing in a forward who scored regularly in the Championship. For a club with Premier League ambitions, this kind of investment reflects the financial muscle now available in the second tier. Burnley, meanwhile, lose a key attacking contributor and will need to reinvest or reshuffle their frontline, particularly given the demands of a promotion push.
Ipswich gain a proven forward to boost their attacking threat, while Burnley lose a significant goal-scoring asset and face a void in their frontline.
