Three To Leave Turf Moor
Three senior players are to leave Turf Moor this summer, with the future of Peter Crouch still to be determined.
Defender Stephen Ward and goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard have not had their contracts renewed, while striker Jon Walters is retiring from football due to injury.
Left-back Ward ends a successful five-year stay with the Clarets which saw the 33-year-old make 113 appearances for the club, while former Republic of Ireland team-mate Walters and Denmark international Lindegaard leave after two seasons with Burnley.
Former England international Crouch is also out of contract, having joined the Clarets on a short-term deal in January.
