Burnley boss Sean Dyche is delighted with their swoop for West Ham United midfielder Matt Taylor.
Taylor turned down Fulham to sign for the Clarets.
Dyche said: "We know we are going into what is arguably the best league in the world and we also know that it helps to have experience at that level.
"Matt has an abundance of that, as well as being a very talented player.
"Certainly there is a lot of football left in him."
