“It just feels like the right fit. Everyone I spoke to about the club have only got great words to say. So excited and can’t wait to get started", he explained to the club media.

His arrival follows that of Taylor Harwood-Bellis, who he played with at Burnley and who was signed permanently from Manchester City this summer.
