David Datro Fofana: Burnley sign Chelsea striker on loan

Burnley have signed Ivory Coast striker David Datro Fofana on loan from Chelsea until the end of the season.

He spent the first half of the season on loan at Union Berlin in Germany, making 17 appearances, and scoring in the Champions League group stages against Napoli.

The 21-year-old said Burnley will be the "perfect" club for him to progress.

He added: "To work with [Clarets boss] Vincent Kompany will be very good. I have seen a couple of games already and I think this is the right place for me to make the next steps.
