Newly promoted Premier League side Burnley have signed Martin Dúbravka from Newcastle on an one-year deal.

The Slovakian goalkeeper recently entered the final year of his contract at St James' Park and joins the Clarets for an undisclosed fee.

Dúbravka had a long career at Newcastle after joining from Sparta Prague in 2018 and made 179 appearances for the Magpies.

The 36-year-old spent the 2022/23 campaign on loan at Manchester United and made just 10 Premier League appearances for his parent club last term.

However, he still played a key role last season, making four appearances during Newcastle's 2024/25 EFL Cup winning run.

Dúbravka is likely to replace former Burnley number one James Trafford, who recently completed a move back to Man City earlier this summer.
