After a long and protracted transfer saga, Burnley have finally completed the signing of defender James Tarkowski from Brentford for an undisclosed fee.
The 23-year-old made 70 appearances during his two year spell at Griffin Park and played a key role in their run to the play-offs under Mark Warburton last season.
Burnley manager Sean Dyche told the club's official website,“James is a player I have known for a couple of seasons and I've monitored his progress from Oldham, right the way through to now.
“He is at a good age and has gained a lot of experience over the last couple of seasons and I feel he can be a big part of us going forwards in the future.“We want competition in all areas and we have been a little bit light in that area all season, so we feel he's a very good player and an excellent signing for the club, both now and for the future.”
