Burnley are reportedly looking to sign Sunderland defender Stanislav Varga in a two-year deal in order to bolster the Clarets defence following comments made by manager Owen Coyle following the 3-0 defeat to Blackpool on Tuesday afternoon at Bloomfield Road.

Varga who joined the Mackems for £650,000 in 2000 has apparantly almost signed a 2-year deal with the Clarets for an unknown sum.

The 6 foot five Slovakian has been capped for his national side 54 times, scoring two goals in his international career.

During his career since 2000 he has spent time at Celtic before returning to the Stadium of Light in 2006.

Varga has a reputation of being good in the air in both attacking and densive roles and is able to pass with great accuracy over large distances. Some have said he is slow and has his age against him although his height could play an important part in Burnley's defense.
