DONE DEAL: Burnley land Troyes forward Wilson Odobert

Burnley have landed France Under-20 forward Wilson Odobert.

Odobert moves to Burnley from French side Troyes, who were relegated from Ligue 1 last season. He joins for an undisclosed fee, signing a five-year contract.

"The project here excited me," Odobert,18, told Burnley's website.

"I really liked it. The manager, the team, the town. I really love it and it's a really good project for me.

"I want to play as much as possible at Burnley, do as well as I can with the team, stay in the team and play the best I possibly can for the club."
