Premier League new boys Burnley have signed former Bolton Wanderers striker Jamie Thomas on a free transfer.

Thomas, 19, has signed a two-year deal with a further year's option in the club's favour.

He said: “I'm absolutely delighted and I'm looking forward to getting started now in pre-season and hopefully hitting the ground running.

“I feel it's a place that's close to home. My dad was born in Burnley so it's close to me and my family. I feel I can continue progressing and push on to eventually try and get into the first-team.

“I've been shown around the training ground and I thought the facilities and the plans for the future we excellent so it made me want to come here even more."
