Peacock-Farrell seals loan to Aarhus

Northern Ireland goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrellhas joined Danish Superliga side AGF Aarhus on loan from Burnley in search of first-team opportunities.

Peacock-Farrell served as back-up to Aro Muric at Turf Moor last season and Vincent Kompany has further strengthened the goalkeeping department since securing promotion to the Premier League with the signings of James Trafford and Lawrence Vigouroux.

The 26-year-old was therefore expected to leave the Clarets this summer and Peacock-Farrell has joined up with a familiar face in former Leeds boss Uwe Rosler at Aarhus on a season-long loan.

Peacock-Farrell, who has 39 caps for Northern Ireland, has struggled to nail down a starting spot in club football since losing his place to Kiko Casilla at Leeds in early 2019.

He joined Burnley that summer but, prior to making 16 appearances last term, featured in just a handful of games. His most consistent spell of football came in the 2021-22 season when he made 47 appearances on loan at Sheffield Wednesday.
