Burnley complete the signing of Derby County midfielder Jeff Hendrick for a club-record fee.

Burnley have completed the signing of Derby County midfielder Jeff Hendrick for a club-record fee.

Earlier this summer, the Clarets broke their transfer record to secure the signature of Steven Defour from Anderlecht but they have now improved on that as Sean Dyche continues to strengthen his squad at Turf Moor.

The North-West outfit have not disclosed the fee but it has been confirmed that the Republic of Ireland international has penned a three-year contract.

The 24-year-old told the club's official website: "The Premier League was a big draw for me and it's where I aspire to be after the summer I've had.

"Burnley did so well last year going unbeaten for five months and how much they wanted me this summer was a real positive for me."

Hendrick made 214 appearances for Derby during his time in the East Midlands, scoring 27 goals.
