Bardsley: I Always Wanted To Stay
Birthday boy Phil Bardsley is celebrating the chance to extend his prolific top-flight career at Turf Moor.
Bardsley – who chalked up his 35th birthday the day before the Clarets’ Monday night trip to Crystal Palace – has signed a new 12-month deal at Burnley.
That will take the defender into a fourth season with the Clarets and with top-flight football all but assured for Sean Dyche’s men in 2020/21, Bardsley will operate at the top level for a 16th successive campaign.
“It took a little bit of time to get sorted but I’m delighted with the outcome of it,” said Bardsley, whose existing deal was due to expire at the end of June.
