Report: Burnley close in on Johann Berg Gudmundsson

Charlton Athletic midfielder Johann Berg Gudmundsson is reportedly closing in on a move to Burnley.

The 25-year-old, who represented both Chelsea and Fulham during his youth career, joined Charlton from AZ in 2014 and has scored 16 league goals in 81 appearances for the London club.

The attacker was also a key part of the Iceland team that reached the quarter-finals of Euro 2016 and according to Sky Sports News, he will play Premier League football next season after Burnley agreed a £2.5m deal with Charlton.

Gudmundsson, who mainly operates in a wide midfield position, only signed a new four-year contract with his Championship club in July 2015.
