Burnley bring in Peacock-Farrell following Heaton departure

After Tom Heaton left for Aston Villa, Burnley have bolstered their goalkeeping options with the addition of Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

Burnley have moved quickly to bring in Tom Heaton's replacement, signing Bailey Peacock-Farrell from Leeds United for an undisclosed fee.

England international Heaton ended his six-year stay at Turf Moor on Thursday, joining newly promoted Aston Villa.

Nick Pope – who missed much of last season through injury and then struggled to establish himself in the side ahead of Heaton and Joe Hart – is tipped to be Burnley's first-choice goalkeeper for the new season.
