Burnley have completed the signing of midfielder Dale Stephens from Brighton & Hove Albion.
The 31-year-old is one away from a century of Premier League appearances, having spent six seasons at the Seagulls.
Stephens is the club's first senior outfield signing of the summer and has been a long-term target for Clarets manager Sean Dyche.
"I'm very happy. It's probably taken a few more years than expected but I’m happy to get it over the line this week and finally become a Burnley player," Stephens told the club's official website.
