Burnley have completed the signing of Armando Broja from Chelsea for an undisclosed fee believed to be worth up to £20m.
Chelsea confirmed the transfer in a statement on their website on Friday.
The Albania international striker has agreed a five-year contract at Turf Moor and becomes the second player this week to make the move from Stamford Bridge with Lesley Ugochukwu, also having made the switch to Lancashire, BBC Sport reports.
“It’s a really positive time to be joining this club ahead of the start of the new Premier League season. I can’t wait to get going,” said Broja.
“I’m feeling good, I’m ready and I’m excited about the challenge of playing for this club.
