Burnley have completed the signing of Sheffield United midfielder Sander Berge.

Berge, who had one year left on his Bramall Lane contract, joins the Premier League outfit a four-year deal. 

The Norway international, who made 109 appearances and scored 15 goals for the Blades, has two years of Premier League experience under his belt.

Berge is expected to bolster Burnley's squad as they prepare to make their top-flight return. 

"I have heard a lot of good things about the club and seeing the success from outside last season, there's a great project building here," said Berge.

"It's a great environment full of young talented players from all around the world, so I just think it's the perfect fit for me.

"The club has high ambitions, making several signings and it all just fits into what I'm looking for."

The Clarets also off-loaded striker Wout Weghorst on loan and handed Manuel Benson a new four-year contract.

Berge's arrival came shortly after Belgian youth international Benson, who scored 13 times in their Championship-winning campaign, committed his long-term future to the club.

However, Weghorst, who had spells at Besiktas and Manchester United last season, does not feature in manager Vincent Kompany's plans and has returned to Germany.

He was signed from Wolfsburg in January 2022 but scored just twice in 20 league matches as the club were relegated.
