Largie Ramazani was one of two players to leave Leeds United on transfer deadline day.
Willy Gnonto was the other, with the Italian winger joining Serie A outfit Fiorentina on loan.
Despite being heavily linked with a return to Valencia throughout the summer, Ramazani ended up making the move to Burnley, initially on loan. However, the Clarets have an obligation to buy for around £6.5million should he end up making a certain number of appearances.
In a recent interview that went on Burnley’s social media channels, the Belgian winger made an emotional admission regarding his former employers.
During our promotion-winning campaign in 2024/25, Ramazani made 29 Championship appearances for Leeds. Just seven of those were starts.
If it were up to the majority of the fanbase, he would’ve featured far more often.
Despite his limited game time, Ramazani endeared himself to the supporters. He still managed to notch six goals and two assists in the league, averaging a goal every 135 minutes. (Sofascore)
Ultimately, Ramazani could never fully convince Daniel Farke to trust him. It’s a shame it didn’t properly work out for the 25-year-old following his £10million move to West Yorkshire.
However, it is clear that Ramazani still looks back on his brief stint with us fondly.
In a quickfire interview with Ramazani that went out on Burnley’s social media, he was asked what his favourite football moment so far was.
The winger did not hesitate one bit, replying, “Promotion to the Premier League.”
Largie Ramazani may not be at Burnley for long
Burnley’s objective this season will be to win promotion back to the Premier League for what feels like the 700th time.
Ramazani is a quality player who will surely help their promotion push.
However, their start to the season has not been ideal under their new manager Nicky Hayen.
They are winless in their first four games, with two draws and two defeats. If Burnley do not get promoted this season, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Ramazani move again. Especially if he has an impressive season in the second tier.
I believe he’s far too good to spend his prime years in the Championship, and wouldn’t be shocked if a club from La Liga came calling if Burnley don’t go up.
