Burnley sign defender Worrall from Forest

Championship side Burnley have signed defender Joe Worrall from Nottingham Forest for an undisclosed fee on a four-year deal.

Englishman Worrall, 27, made 226 appearances for hometown club Forest, but spent the second half of last season on loan at Turkish side Besiktas.

Burnley have won both their first two games back in the Championship following relegation from the top flight last season.

“I’m very happy to be a Burnley player, I can’t wait to be involved and help get them back to the Premier League," said Worrall.

“It felt like home as soon as I walked through the door and that’s what I want it to be.
