Burnley Football Club are pleased to confirm the arrival of defender Lorenz Assignon on loan until the end of the season from Rennes.
The 23-year-old right-back progressed through Rennes’ academy system after joining in 2015 and has gone on to play 60 times for the Ligue 1 side.
After arriving at Turf Moor, Assignon said: “I’m really happy, it’s been a long day and it’s been a day of hard decisions but I’m very pleased to be here.
“I had a number of clubs to choose from but I spoke to the manager and straight away knew that I wanted to be here.
“I’m ready to go. It’s the best league in the world and I’m really excited to be a part of it.”
Born in Grasse, Assignon joined Rennes’ academy as a youngster and initially spent time with ‘Rennes B’ before a loan spell with French side Bastia, which saw the defender win the third division title.
The full-back returned to Rennes and became a first team regular in the France top-flight side before joining the Clarets this window.
