Burnley have announced the signing of veteran striker Jamie Vardy until the end of the current campaign.

The 39-year-old had been without a club since the end of last season after a brief stint in Italy with Cremonese where he scored seven goals in 29 appearances.

Now, the former Leicester City man is back in English football after signing for the Clarets.

"I'm really happy to now be here at Burnley FC," Vardy said on his arrival at the Lancashire side.

"This club has a proper footballing history and passionate fans who deserve a team that represents them and their town.

"I can't wait to get going on the pitch and help the team move in the right direction."

Burnley are currently rock bottom of the Championship with five games played after falling to defeat at home to Bristol City on Saturday.
