New Deals For Young Players

The Clarets have made new contract offers to a number of their young players and triggered contract extensions for others as they continue to look to the future.

Midfielder Josh Benson and defenders Ryan Cooney and Jimmy Dunne – who have all gained first-team experience on loan in the EFL this season – have had their stays at Turf Moor extended – along with Republic of Ireland international Robbie Brady, as previously announced.

Central defender Dunne, 22, has been part of the match-day squad for the Clarets since the Premier League restarted, while Benson and Cooney have both trained in the senior set-up, without being eligible to play due to their season-ending loan spells at Grimsby Town and Morecambe, respectively.
