Burnley striker Lyle Foster has seen a remarkable increase in his market value since making the switch to English football, with reports indicating a staggering 350% rise.
The South African forward joined Burnley from Belgian side Westerlo in the January 2023 transfer window, arriving at a crucial time for the Clarets.

He helped the side achieve promotion at the end of the 2022/23 season, helping them secure top-flight football for the next campaign.
Despite the side struggling in the Premier League, Foster managed to contribute significantly despite missing part of the season due to mental health challenges.
During the Clarets' stint in the EPL, the 24-year-old managed to register five goals and three assists in 24 appearances.
His performances did not go unnoticed, as Ipswich Town were reportedly keen on securing his services during the transfer window leading up to the 2024/25 campaign.
This season, however, Foster has had a more challenging time. He suffered a knee injury in October that kept him sidelined until December, causing him to miss 15 matches.
Additionally, he has often been deployed on the left flank rather than in his preferred central role, limiting his overall impact on the pitch.
Despite these setbacks, Foster's market valuation has skyrocketed. According to Football League World via Transfermarkt, his value has risen from €2 million to €9 million since his arrival at Turf Moor – an eye-watering 350% increase.
