Burnley have confirmed the signing of Aaron Ramsey from Aston Villa for £14m.
He is their 11th signing of the summer and has agreed a five year contract.
The deal includes a buy-back option.
‘I’m absolutely buzzing,’ Ramsey said.
‘I have been waiting to be a Burnley player for a while now and I’m really happy it’s all officially done now. I can’t wait to get started.
‘I can’t wipe my smile off my face. When you come to a new club you want the lads to welcome you in and everyone here has done that straight away.
‘It’s been really easy to settle, everyone has been amazing
Ramsey, the younger brother of Jacob, spent the last 12 years at Villa Park.
He made four senior appearances for Villa after coming through the club’s academy.
Ramsey made 20 appearances on loan at Norwich last season, recording three goals and three assists while with the Canaries.
The midfielder also had loan spells at Cheltenham and Middlesbrough.
He was also part of the England U19s squad that lifted the UEFA European Championship title last year.
