Matthew Lowton to make Burnley switch?

Aston Villa defender Matthew Lowton is on the verge of joining Burnley, according to a report.

Burnley are reportedly close to signing Aston Villa defender Matthew Lowton.

The Championship side are in the market for a new right-back after selling Kieran Trippier to Tottenham Hotspur on Friday.

It is thought that the Clarets have identified Lowton as a replacement, with the 26-year-old having fallen out of favour at Villa Park last season.

According to Sky Sports News, Burnley have agreed a fee in the region of £1m for Lowton.

It is thought that the defender will sign a three-year deal at Turf Moor.
