Not sure how much sense MacDonald signing for Burnley for another 12 months would be if he was coming back to us - but then again....
Burnley have offered new contracts to youngsters Wes Fletcher, Dominic Knowles, Alex MacDonald and Alex-Ray Harvey.
Fletcher has made one substitute appearance for the Clarets and had a spell on loan at League Two's bottom club Stockport County earlier in the season.
MacDonald, meanwhile, has featured eight times as a substitute during his Burnley career and has been on loan in the SPL with Inverness Caledonian Thistle since January.
The duo, along with Knowles and Harvey, have been offered 12-month extensions to stay part of Eddie Howe's squad next season.
