Bearing in mind our Nick is statistically the best Goalie in the Premiership and wins Man of the Match awards pretty much every week - again tonight, then given the international prestige of the Premiership he must have a good claim to be the best Goalie in the World.
My supplementary question on this is do we still have a sell on clause ? Surely he will move to a bigger side than Burnley in the summer and the fee should be enormous, c £50m or more - could be a great pay day if we haven’t already cashed it in on the cheap.

Tottenham to my knowledge are the only exception.
I don't know if any of them would go for him but I don't think any of them wouldn't be intrested in a new goal keeper.
Man United have Henderson who is 23.
Chelsea have Mendy + Kepa on big wages.
I don't think Leicester are going to spend huge money on a new Keeper as they will need to replace Vardy soon.
Everton could but Pickford is 26 and Pope is 28 so not likely.
How is he 28 😭
Surely there would be European teams who would take him in a flash. He is worth a one goal start for Burnley pretty much every game. If Southgate wasn’t a complete ( ex Palace) twerp he’d be picking Pope ahead of Pickford and that would help for World exposure
Thats blown me away and made me feel very old.
He will not move to a bigger team if he can't manage to play out from the back successfully.
There's a difference between being a bit awkward, and just being plain bad at it like Pope has been the last couple of games for England.
