Burnley complete record swoop for Hendrick

Jeff Hendrick has become Burnley's record signing after agreeing a three-year deal at Turf Moor.

Burnley have bolstered their midfield options with the signing of Derby County midfielder Jeff Hendrick for a club-record fee.

Hendrick starred for the Republic of Ireland during Euro 2016 and moves to Turf Moor on a three-year contract after passing a medical earlier on Wednesday.

The 24-year-old played 214 times for Derby since making his debut in April 2011, but he has opted to leave the Championship club for a shot in the Premier League.

"The Premier League was a big draw for me and it's where I aspire to be after the summer I've had," he told the club's official website.
