Robbie Brady’s squad number for Burnley has been revealed

Robbie Brady has finally completed his transfer to Burnley.

Brady had been linked with a return to the Premier League since being relegated with Norwich City last season, and impressing at Euro 2016 for the Republic of Ireland. After months of speculation, a move failed to materialise last summer and the 25-year-old remained in the Championship with Norwich. However, in the final hours of deadline day, Brady joined Burnley for a club record fee worth £13m. https://twitter.com/BurnleyOfficial/status/826528851211743232?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw The transfer fee breaks Burnley's previous record, when they paid Derby County £10.5m for Jeff Hendrick last summer. The former St Kevin's Boys pair are reunited in the Premier League after playing together at schoolboy level and for Ireland. Their fellow Dubliner Stephen Ward is also at the club. Brady spoke briefly about the move on Tuesday night, saying it was a "great move" and that he wants to repay the faith of the club for signing him. https://twitter.com/BurnleyOfficial/status/826580252310794240 The club then revealed that Brady will wear number 12, the same squad number he had at Norwich. https://twitter.com/BurnleyOfficial/status/826578334373048322 Following Burnley's 1-0 victory against Leicester City,  Sean Dyche told the club's official website how pleased he was with the signing of Brady, and Ashley Westwood from Aston Villa. "He’s a good technician and keeps the ball well, so I think he’s a good one for us," he said:

"He’s got to earn the right, as has Robbie. He is a different type, he can play in a couple of different positions and was hungry with a desire to be back in the Premier League and we want him to take on that challenge. "It’s been a tough deal to get through, that one, and we’re delighted to have him and Ashley here. "They both have different strengths to them, and they add to the group - and I mean that because I believe in the group."
