Burnley will try to sort out a price with Manchester United for right-back Richard Eckersley – before the two sides meet this week.
Clarets supremo Brendan Flood and United's chief executive David Gill will re-open talks on valuations to avoid a tribunal if they can.
Eckersley quit Old Trafford to join the Premier League new boys at the end of his contract, but there will have to be a compensation fee because of his age.
Burnley boss Owen Coyle is hoping to snap up Eckersley for around £250,000 but United chief Sir Alex Ferguson is looking for a massive £2 million - which is testing relations between the clubs.

Portsmouth are on the verge of a major crisis - with Arab businessman Soulaiman Al Fahim's takeover on the brink of collapse.
And Pompey supremo Peter Storrie is hurriedly setting up talks with rival bidders and backers as the troubled club faces an uncertain future without new finance.
Al Fahim, the big-talking takeover wannabe, went to the Fulham game unannounced and left before the final whistle after hearing some chants aimed against him.
The takeover offer by the Arab, who comes from a wealthy background but has been seeking financial allies, may now be withdrawn in the next 48 hours.
Pompey are concerned about the process falling through, with Al Fahim telling them his money would be in place for weeks but with and no sign of it coming in to pay off their debts.
