Wout Weghorst insists he is looking to leave Burnley - just five MONTHS after joining them for £12.6m - following their Premier League relegation... as Dutch forward admits he has 'options in a higher potential of league'

Wout Weghorst has admitted he is actively looking to leave Burnley this summer after the club were relegated from the Premier League.

The Holland forward moved to Turf Moor for £12.6million in the January transfer window as a replacement for Chris Wood but could not keep the Clarets in the top flight, scoring only twice in 20 games.

Weghorst scored the winner for Holland in their 2-1 victory over Wales on Wednesday and believes he cannot afford to be in the second tier with the World Cup just five months away.
