Burnley complete joint club-record £15m deal to sign Lyon star Maxwel Cornet on a five-year contract as Sean Dyche lands his fifth signing of the summer... but the Ivorian suffers a mishap after pointing at Umbro's badge!

Burnley have signed Ivory Coast international Maxwel Cornet from Lyon - with the 24-year-old pointing to the wrong part of his shirt during his unveiling.

Cornet joins from the Ligue 1 club on a five-year deal and the Clarets have described the move as 'one of the largest transfer deals in Burnley's history'.

'I am excited to be joining Burnley in the Premier League and to play with and against many of the greatest players in the world,' Cornet said.
