Northampton sign Burnley's Costelloe on loan

Burnley striker Dara Costelloe has joined Northampton Town on loan for the rest of the season.

It is the 22-year-old's second loan of the season, and he steps up a level after scoring five goals in 17 League Two appearances for Accrington Stanley.

Republic of Ireland-born Costelloe joined Burnley from Galway United in 2021 and has had previous loan spells at Bradford City, St Johnstone and Dundee.

"We think Dara can come in and offer something a little different," said Cobblers manager Kevin Nolan.

"He can be a threat, a spark, he can create things and he is very much an attacking threat.
