Burnley set to land Leeds star Chris Wood in £15million swoop following failed first bid
The former Leicester and West Brom striker scored 27 goals in 44 Championship appearances last season



Burnley are set to land Leeds striker Chris Wood in a £15m deal.

Leeds rejected Burnley's last offer of £12m plus add-ons for Wood but are braced for a new bid this weekend.

Wood, 25, is keen on a move to the Premier League and has been frustrated at what he sees as Leeds pricing him out of a big career move.

Burnley are hopeful they can get a £15m deal done with add-ons even though it would be a huge blow to Leeds' promotion clubs.

New Zealand international Wood got 30 goals last season and Leeds do not want to sell as they have their own Premier League ambitions.

But Burnley have targeted Wood as a replacement for Andre Gray who joined Watford for £18m.

Gray's departure has left Burnley boss Sean Dyche keen to strengthen his squad and believes Wood is the ideal replacement.

Chris Wood set for Burnley medical after £15m deal agreed to buy Leeds striker

Burnley have agreed a £15m deal with Leeds United to sign New Zealand striker Chris Wood, Sky Sports News understands.

The 25-year-old is set to undergo a medical with the Lancashire club, possibly on Manchester City's Etihad campus, on Saturday.

Wood tweeted on Saturday stating that, due to the ongoing negotiations, it would "not be right" for him to play in Leeds' evening kick-off clash with Sunderland, live on Sky Sports Football.

"Due to strong from a Premier League team, the ongoing discussions with the club, and given it has always been my ambition to play at the highest level, I don't feel it's right to play today," Wood said.

"I wish the team all the best and hope the lads can pick up three points."

The Clarets have been after Wood since losing Andre Gray to Watford and had an initial £12m offer rejected, with Leeds subsequently offering the player a new contract.

Wood had netted more than 40 goals for Leeds, including one on the opening weekend of the current season at Bolton.

He scored 30 goals in 48 appearances in all competitions under Garry Monk last season - his most prolific campaign.

Burnley boss Sean Dyche has so far brought in six players this summer, including forward Jonathan Walters from Stoke City.

Charlie Taylor, Jack Cork, Phil Bardsley and goalkeeper Adam Legzdins have also arrived at Turf Moor.

Chris Wood: Burnley sign Leeds United striker for club record fee

Burnley have signed striker Chris Wood from Leeds United for a club record transfer fee, thought to be about £15m.

The 25-year-old scored 44 goals in 88 appearances after joining the Championship side from Leicester City in July 2015.

The New Zealand international ruled himself out of Leeds' match against Sunderland on Saturday amid speculation about his future.

Wood, who is Sean Dyche's sixth summer signing, joins on a four-year deal.

He has found the net once in three appearances for Leeds this season, but said he is now relishing his chance in the Premier League.

"I've had tastes of being in there but I've never had the chance to give it a proper bash," said the former West Brom youngster. "Coming here I feel I've got a proper opportunity to do that. I've never started a Premier League game and this is what I want to do.

"This is a club that wants to stay in the Premier League for years to come and it's going that way."

Wood is eligible to play for Burnley in the EFL Cup after being an unused substitute in Leeds' opening-round win over Port Vale and will be available for Wednesday's second-round derby at Blackburn.

Burnley's previous record signing was January recruit Robbie Brady, whose fee could reach £13m.
