Burnley close in on Charlton Athletic duo?

Charlton Athletic pair Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Nick Pope have reportedly moved to the brink of sealing transfers to Premier League side Burnley.

Earlier this month, it was claimed that the newly-promoted team had agreed a fee for winger Gudmundsson, but it now appears that the Clarets are intent on pushing through a double deal which also involves goalkeeper Pope.

According to Sky Sports News, the two players are expected in the North-West to undergo medicals and if successful, the moves could be completed later this week.

Gudmundsson has scored 17 goals in 86 appearances for the Addicks in his two years at the club, while Pope has played 38 times at The Valley since signing his first professional contract in 2011.
