The 28-year-old signed a three-year deal with the promoted Premier League club reportedly worth 7.35 million pounds (9.5 million dollars).

“I hope I can bring my experience to the team and the club to stay in the Premier League,” Defour told Burnley’s website.

Defour said he took some time to look into the club when he was told of their interest in him and “saw some interesting stuff.”

He added: “I also called a friend of mine who plays at Brentford and he told me Burnley was the best team in the Championship and that it would be a really good choice for me.”
