Burnley are reportedly interested in signing Cardiff City striker Kieffer Moore following the sale of Chris Wood to Newcastle United.
The New Zealand frontman has left Turf Moor in favour of a £25 million move to relegation-threatened Newcastle. Wood played a vital role in Sean Dyche’s attack, scoring 53 times in 165 appearances for the club. Now, Burnley are looking to spend the fee inside the Championship.
