Burnley complete signing of Stoke City forward Jonathan Walters

Burnley have announced that forward Jonathan Walters has left Stoke City to sign a two-year deal with the Clarets.

Walters had spent the last seven years with the Potters but it was reported earlier this week that Stoke had agreed to sell the versatile forward for a fee in the region of £2m.

The North-West outfit have now confirmed that the 33-year-old has moved to Turf Moor for an undisclosed fee ahead of their second campaign in the Premier League.

The Republic of Ireland international leaves Stoke having scored 43 goals in 226 top-flight outings, while he netted a further 19 times from 43 outings in other competitions.

Walters becomes the second first-team arrival this week, with Charlie Taylor having made the transfer from Leeds United.
