Report: Burnley lead Charlie Taylor race

Burnley are reportedly at the head of the queue to sign Leeds United defender Charlie Taylor this summer.

The 22-year-old came through the youth system at Leeds and has made 72 appearances for the Yorkshire club since making his first-team debut in 2011.

West Bromwich Albion have been linked with a move for the former England Under-19 international, but according to The Mirror, Burnley currently lead the race as they prepare for the new Premier League season.

Taylor, who can also operate in a wide midfield role, has previously spent time out on loan with Bradford City, York City, Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Fleetwood Town.
