Burnley to raid rivals for winger

Skysports.com understands Burnley are lining up a move for Preston winger Ross Wallace. Burnley have switched their attentions to Wallace after being frustrated in their attempts to sign Hearts wide-man Andrew Driver. Clarets boss Brian Laws has money to spend following Steven Fletcher's move to Wolves and he is ready to make a bid for Wallace. The former Celtic and Sunderland man has impressed at Preston since arriving initially on loan in 2008 before signing on a permanent basis a year later. Preston boss Darren Ferguson is reluctant to lose the 25-year-old, but could cash-in on the player to raise funds for his own transfer plans. Wallace could be Burnley's third signing of the summer following the captures of Chris Iwelumo and Dean Marney.
