The Express understand that Burnley are ready to cash in on striker Andre Gray.
The twenty-five year old is heading into the final year of his current deal with the Clarets and has yet to agree fresh terms.
Newly promoted Newcastle United are leading the race to secure his services and Burnley are ready to cash in as they look to strengthen having comfortably retained their top flight status.
Dwight Gayle was in fine form for Rafael Benitez’s side last term, bagging twenty-three goals but the Spaniard is keen to add someone with Premier League pedigree to his strike force.
Gray scored ten goals for Sean Dyche’s side during the 2016/17 campaign with nine of those coming in the league as they secured a sixteenth place finish.
He also netted twenty-three times as the Lancashire club won promotion by clinching the Championship title just over twelve months ago.
