Burnley are emerging as a contender to sign former Crystal Palace shot stopper Wayne Hennessey.

The 34-year-old is out of contract this summer and has already been linked to Chelsea and Aston Villa.

According to the Daily Mail, Burnley are keen to secure the veteran ahead of the new season.

Hennessey may feel he will get more chances in the first team at Burnley, as he would likely be third choice at Chelsea and second or third choice at Villa.

The report does not state whether negotiations between Burnley and Hennessey are at an advanced stage.
