The New Zealand international has arrived in Manchester for a medical, and he is close to a move to Burnley.

Leeds United club manager Thomas Christiansen confirmed that Burnley's offer for Woods has been accepted.

The 25-year-old scored 30 goals in 48 appearances for the Championship side, and it seems that they found the perfect replacement for Andre Gray, who signed for Watford.

Woods scored 27 Championship goals for Leeds last season and the striker arrived at Manchester City's Etihad Stadium this Sunday morning to begin the medical stage of his move to Turf Moor.
