Burnley and Rangers tracking Ligue 1 striker, report claims

Burnley are heading for Premier League football but despite their success, new additions will be needed.

As Ashley Barnes heads for Norwich City, the feeling is that a new striker should be on the shopping list. There’s plenty of goals in the Clarets team but with Jay Rodriguez now 33 and Lyle Foster and Michael Obafemi yet to prove how truly prolific they can be, another talisman looks to be a necessity.

A host of striker have been linked with the club and now, it has been claimed that ex-Chelsea man Ugbo is on the radar.

The Scottish Sun says Burnley are keen on the 24-year-old striker, who has also been tracked by Rangers.

Ugbo currently plays in France’s top-tier with ESTAC Troyes but they will be playing second-tier football next season after a pretty dismal season for the club.
