“Signing a contract at Burnley is a happy moment for me and I always knew that this moment might come, but not this fast,” Luwawu said.
“This will be a good challenge for me, and I want to help the club to achieve its objectives. I’ve been welcomed very well by the coaching department, so it already feels like home.”
Born in Luanda, Luwawu began playing football locally before being scouted by AFA in 2017 and progressing through their academy.
He played a key role in Angola’s run at the 2025 U17 Africa Cup of Nations, helping them qualify through the COSAFA section.
