The Burnley striker has been linked with a move to the Walkers
Gifton Noel-Williams is rumoured to be set for a move to Leicester City after falling out of favour with Burnely manager, Steve Cottrill.

The Striker moved to Turf Moor from Stoke in 2005 after scoring 23 goals over the course of his two season spell for the Potters.

The 6ft 3" former Watford man soon found himself struggling for first team action. This caused Noel-Williams to accept a loan spell with Brighton, another team who have shown interest in the Striker.

However, the Englishman still has one year left on his Burnley contract. This could possibly lead to Rob Kelly and the City board looking elsewhere as the strikers price tag could be off putting for the financially struggling Foxes.

Noel-Williams is currently in talks with his agent, Gary Mellor. When commenting on the situation, Mellor said:

'I'm going to run a few things by him and see what he wants to do because it doesn't look like he is in Burnleys plans.'
