Sheffield United have agreed a fee with Burnley for striker Ade Akinbiyi.

Neil Warnock has been in pursuit of the former Stoke City man for some time, and reportedly had two bids rebuffed prior to this latest development.

The initial bid was in the region of £1.25 million, and it is thought that Burnley were holding out for at least another £250,000 on top of that.

31-year-old Akinbiyi joined Burnley from Stoke for a fee of £600,000 in February last year, and has scored a total of 134 goals in 435 career appearance
