Town defender Axel Tuanzebe is reported to be undergoing a medical at newly promoted Premier League Burnley.
The right-sided centre-half or right-back is out of contract this summer and is set to join the Clarets as a free agent, according to _[The Athletic](https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6453346/2025/06/26/axel-tuanzebe-burnley-free-transfer/)_.
The 27-year-old was offered new terms by the Blues but as was the case with Cameron Burgess, who earlier this month joined Championship Swansea City the DR Congo international is set to move on.
Turkish reports yesterday claimed Trabzonspor had pulled out of a move for the former Manchester United man due to concerns regarding his fitness giving fans hope that Tuanzebe might stay at Portman Road. However, those hopes appear to have been dashed
The former Old Trafford trainee has been a key player over the past two seasons, despite injury sidelining him for a fair chunk of 2024/25.
Tuanzebe made 20 Premier League starts and two sub appearances for the Blues having suffered a freak hand injury and hamstring issues over the course of the campaign.
