Accrington Stanley have completed the signing of Burnley midfielder Joe Bauress on a season-long loan.

Bauress was only 16 when he made his Burnley debut, appearing as a last minute substitute in a 3-1 EFL Cup win over Crawley.

The 19-year-old made two appearances for the Clarets first team last season, starting their 3-1 FA Cup win at Reading with a subsequent substitute role in a fourth round win at Southampton.

"I want the chance to play regular EFL football and hope I can make a big impression with Accrington," Bauress told the club website., external

Accrington opened their League Two campaign with a 1-1 draw against Gillingham on Saturday.
