Accrington sign Burnley defender Pye on loan

Logan Pye is yet to make a full senior appearance for Burnley

Accrington Stanley have signed defender Logan Pye on a season-long loan from Premier League side Burnley.

The 21-year-old came through the youth set-up at Manchester United before joining the Clarets in 2023.

He has made 23 appearances for Burnley's Under-21s but is yet to turn out for their first team.

"I need to play men's football and get used to that, so it's the ideal time to come out on loan," Pye told Accrington's website.

"I met the lads before the Oldham game and they all seemed nice, and it will be easy to settle in."
