Newcastle, Crystal Palace target Ashley Barnes committed to Burnley

Ashley Barnes insists he's committed to Burnley.

The striker has been linked with Newcastle and Crystal Palace.

"Everyone has been linked with someone, you don't really read into it," Barnes told the Lancashire Evening Telegraph.

"But for me I'm a Burnley player, I've got two years left and I love it here, my family are settled so I'll be back next year."

Barnes has made Burnley his home since his move from Brighton and he has become an integral part of the dressing room.

Asked if he felt at home at Turf Moor now, he added: "Yeah, definitely. It's magnificent here, I love it. Playing week in week out at Turf Moor is brilliant.

"I'm a Burnley player and I continue to keep playing for this shirt."
