Burnley have signed goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell from Leeds United for £2.5m.

The Northern Ireland international has come in as a replacement for outgoing keeper Tom Heaton, who joined Premier League rivals Aston Villa on Thursday for £8m.

The 22-year-old, who has signed a four-year deal at Turf Moor, made 28 Championship appearances for Leeds last season.

"I'm really happy to be here," he said.

"A Premier League club is what you dream of when you are starting out in football and to say I've signed for Burnley is a massive honour."
