Burnley on brink of signing Bolton striker Sordell

Burnley are on the brink of signing Bolton Wanderers striker Marvin Sordell.

The Lancashire Evening Telegraph says Sordell was set to complete his move last night for around £600,000 plus add-ons - significantly less than the £3.2million Bolton paid to sign him from Watford on January transfer deadline day 2012.

But with Bolton needing to free up funds in order to push through with their bid to sign Lukas Jutkiewicz from Middlesbrough negotiations advanced speedily, allowing the Clarets to move in on their next target.
