The midfielder has left Aston Villa to sign for the Clarets on a five-year deal worth £14m
Aaron Ramsey is delighted to have finally concluded his move to Burnley from Aston Villa.
The England youth international became the Clarets’ 11th summer signing, joining from Villa for an undisclosed fee believed to be in the region of £14million. Ramsey spent last season on loan in the Championship with Norwich City and Middlesbrough, helping the latter reach the play-offs.
He has signed a five-year deal at Turf Moor, leaving Villa after 12 years at the club. He had little hesitation about making the move and is excited to see a drawn-out process finally be completed.
“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.

“The interest was a while back, there was some in January but it didn’t happen. The interest in a permanent move has been a few months but in the last week or so, I was hoping it would happen, it took longer than I thought it would, but I can’t wait to get going.
“When you’re playing 21s football, it’s not the same as men’s football. I was thrown in and I’ve adapted to the environment, playing week in, week out.

You play twice a week, when you get into that environment, you take it in your stride. It’s important playing games to get the best out of yourself.”
