BURNLEY winger Johann Berg Gudmundsson has sparked a £20million three-way scrap to land him this summer.
Newcastle, Leicester and Southampton have all shown interest in the Iceland international after his impressive campaign.
The 27-year-old has started every game since October and played a key role in getting the Clarets into the Premier League top seven.
Rafa Benitez is a massive fan of the ex-Charlton midfielder, while Leicester are expected to lose Riyad Mahrez and are looking at replacements.
Southampton have been long-term admirers of Gudmundsson and will also join the race if they avoid relegation.
Burnley will look to offer Gudmundsson a fresh deal to reward one of their players of the season.
