Burnley have signed Chelsea forward Patrick Bamford on a season-long loan, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old joins the club following loan spells with Norwich City and Crystal Palace last season, making a total of 13 appearances in England's top flight last campaign.

"Burnley Football Club is delighted to confirm the signing of Chelsea striker Patrick Bamford on a season-long loan," the club said on its website (www.burnleyfootballclub.com).

Burnley, who lost 3-0 to Chelsea on Saturday, will hope to get back to winning ways when they host Hull City on Sept. 10.
