Southend United have re-signed winger Michael Kightly on a three-year deal following his release by Burnley.

Kightly made 88 appearances for Burnley after joining from Stoke in September 2013, but ended last season on loan at Championship side Burton Albion.

The 31-year-old played for Southend between 2003 and 2005, featuring in 19 games for the League One club.

He is the Shrimpers' second signing this summer, following the arrival of left-back Stephen Hendrie.
