Bournemouth launching bid for Burnley pair Trippier, Vokes

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe is chasing Burnley pair Kieren Trippier and Sam Vokes.

The Mirror says Howe was manager of Burnley when he brought Trippier to the club on a season's loan and has remained a big fan.

Bournemouth may make a double swoop on Howe's old club with Welsh international striker Vokes also a top target.

Vokes began his career at Bournemouth before moving to Wolves for £300,000 and then on to Howe's Burnley.

Both Tripper and Vokes fit Howe's preferred signing profile of young British players with something to prove.
