Burnley are reportedly set to sign Chris Wood from Leeds United in the summer transfer window.
It has been reported that Burnley have agreed an initial £15 million deal with Leeds over the transfer of the New Zealand international striker.
Although the 25-year-old has travelled with the Whites’ squad for the Championship game against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light this evening, he will undergo a medical at the Clarets on Sunday, states the report.
The transfer will then be finalised on Monday, and the former Leicester City and West Bromwich Albion striker could be available to play for Burnley against Blackburn Rovers in the EFL Cup on Wednesday, according to The Lancashire Telegraph.
Wood scored 27 goals and provided four assists in 41 Championship starts for Leeds last season, and scored 13 goals and provided four assists in 13 league starts for the West Yorkshire outfit during the 2015-16 campaign.
It will be interesting to see who Leeds sign to replace Wood, as losing him will make it very hard for them to finish in the top six of the Championship this season.
