BURNLEY, England — New Zealand striker Chris Wood is back in the English Premier League after joining Burnley for a club-record fee from Leeds.

Burnley didn't disclose the fee for the 25-year-old Wood on Monday. British media reported he cost 15 million pounds ($19.4 million).

The Auckland-born Wood, who was the top scorer in the second-tier League Championship with 27 goals, had previous brief spells in England's top division with West Bromwich Albion and Leicester but never started a game.

Wood said "my ambition has been to play in the Premier League for years. I've had tastes of being in there but I've never had the chance to give it a proper bash."

He is the sixth signing of the summer transfer window for Burnley, which is in its second season back in the Premier League.
