Preston have turned down three bids for Treacy but Burnley now appear to have reached Preston's asking price of £1.5m with 40% of that figure going to Blackburn as a sell on clause.
The Clarets have chased the winger all close season who has stressed he wants to play at a high level. He turned up to play today but prior to the game was told by the chairman that a condition of the bid being accepted was that he did not play today.
It is also unclear if Adam Barton was alos left out in similar circumstances but a long statement about Treacy's sale has been put on the official website and was sanctioned by Trevor Hemmings seemingly against the wishes of Phil Brown.
