Ghana midfielder Majeed Ashimeru has water down on reports linking him with a re-union with former Anderlecht coach Vincent Kompany at Burnley.

The 24-year-old Anderlecht had been linked with a sensational move to the English side when his former boss made the switch.

Majeed Ashimeru, one of the exciting talent in the Jupiler League has been tipped to follow in the footsteps of his former boss who replaced Sean Dysche at Turf Moor.

But the former Red Bull Salzburg midfielder has denied the media reports on him joining the turfmoor, Insisting talks of a potential move to England were not serious.

“I sent my former boss Kompany a message when he left Anderlecht and he replied to me. I really did not see his departure coming,” Ashimeru explains

“Rumours about my supposed move to English side Burnley ? I heard that too but it wasn’t really serious. I had to reassure my father when he called me after a friend told him I was leaving for England.”


“I have not had any contact with Burnley yet. Nobody has called me and my real estate agent has not  talked to me about it yet!” the midfielder quips.

“I haven’t received a phone call yet. I only spoke to Kompany once. After Anderlecht vs Oostende last season, when he congratulated me on my performance.

‘I do dream of a big competition, without having a real preference. It just has to be a team with a very nice project. Even a team in Belgium is possible. Why not? There are a lot of big clubs here in Belgium.”
