English-born defender Richard Nartey is pleased to sign for Premiership side Burnley as a free agent.
Nartey, 22, was released by Chelsea in July this year and was offered a chance by Burnley to train with them to keep in shape but has been able to impress the coaches to grab a deal.
“It’s a relief. After the whole Covid situation, I was just happy getting back into the swing of it,” Nartey stated after appending his signature to the one-year deal with an option for an extension
“Burnley let me come originally, just to get fit, which I was always grateful for, regardless. Now I’ve signed here is a great feeling for me.”
“Everyone here made me feel like I had been here for years. I felt comfortable settling down and they have been a huge help in making me feel comfortable up here.”
