Burnley on brink of deal for Stoke defender Collins

The latest offer is set to be accepted by the Potters who have been waiting for bigger clubs like Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea to come in with larger offers.

Collins, 20 missed a chunk of the second half of the campaign with injury but Burnley are convinced he is ready to go into Sean Dyche's side.

The powerful defender can play centre-half or right back and could be needed if James Tarkowski is sold this summer.
