Coyle is ready to put in an improved offer for the powerful defender who was sent off against the Clarets in the play-offs last season.
Reading rejected the first Burnley bid because it included too many bonuses and installments, but the clubs have re-opened negotiations and should have the transfer over the line in the next 24 hours.
