Burnley boss Dyche: Why I signed Gudmundsson

Burnley boss Sean Dyche is delighted with their swoop for Johann Berg Gudmundsson .

The 25-year-old winger became Dyche's first summer signing earlier this week, joining from Charlton in a £2.5million deal, with a further £1million in potential add-ons.

“In a side that had to work really hard he showed some good moments of quality," Dyche told the Lancashire Evening Telegraph of his Euro 2016 displays.

“We think he can add that to our group and he's got a strong work ethic.

“I spoke to him about us what he thought and he understood how we played as a side and the feeling of the side and the belief in the side, and he wants to be part of that."
