Clarets linked with Metz winger

Burnley are in talks with Metz over pacy winger Yeni Ngbakoto.

Championship sides QPR and Wolves have agreed a fee of €1.8million for the 24-year-old, but the player is thought to prefer a move to the Premier League, and the Clarets could come up trumps if they move quickly.
