Burnley 'agree deal for Steven Defour'

Burnley reportedly agree a deal with Anderlecht to sign Belgian international midfielder Steven Defour for £7.35m.

Burnley have reportedly agreed a deal with Anderlecht for midfielder Steven Defour.

The 28-year-old moved to Anderlecht from Porto in 2014 and scored nine goals in 63 appearances for the Belgian outfit.

Defour has previously been linked with Everton and Manchester United, but now looks set to move to the Premier League with the newly-promoted Clarets for a reported £7.35m fee.

Defour has been capped 46 times by the Belgian national team, and has won league titles in both his home country and Portugal.

The midfielder will become Burnley's fifth signing of the summer and is expected to put pen to paper on a four-year deal.
