Burnley deal in Northern Ireland U21 defender Luke Conlan

Burnley have snapped up Northern Ireland Under-21 defender Luke Conlan.

Conlan has rejoined Burnley on a one-year contract, the Barclays Premier League club have announced.

He was released by the Clarets over the summer but having recovered from a knee problem has now put pen to paper on a new deal at Turf Moor.

The 19-year-old said on burnleyfootballclub.com: "I'm very happy to be back at the club, I know a lot of the lads from the last few years and this is where I want to be at.

"I want to progress now with Burnley again and hopefully kick on in the next year.

"I had a few other offers from clubs who wanted me to go on trial but as soon as the opportunity came up here to get another contract it was what I wanted to do."
