Sean Dyche has reportedly taken over as the new manager of Championship side Burnley.

Speculation grew over the weekend that the 41-year-old was close to agreeing terms with the Clarets after he was seen watching their 4-0 loss to Cardiff City on Saturday night.

Despite there being no official word from Burnley, Dyche has signed a three-year deal at Turf Moor, according to Sky Sports News.

Dyche has been out of work since he was sacked by Watford during the summer.
