Forward Scott Twine becomes first summer signing

Burnley Football Club are delighted to confirm the signing of Scott Twine on a four-year contract from MK Dons for an undisclosed fee.

The 22-year-old attacker, who was named 2021/22 EFL League One Player of the Season, recorded an impressive 20 goals and 13 assists last season.

Twine’s 33 goal contribution played a significant role in helping MK Dons reach the League One Play-Offs as they narrowly missed out on promotion to the Championship.

Speaking about his move to Turf Moor, Twine said: “I am buzzing. I have definitely made the right decision joining Burnley.

“I spoke in depth with the manager and his plans are exciting, it was a no brainer for me to sign. I can’t wait to get started and it feels like the right place for me.”

The former Swindon Town man was included in both the 2021/22 EFL League One Team of the Season and PFA Team of the Year after his prolific season for MK.

Manager Vincent Kompany added: “We are delighted to have brought Scott to the Club. He’s an exciting young player that will help us in the short-term process and in the long-term project at Burnley Football Club.

“He’s a player we have looked at for a little while now, we know he can score goals and affect games. We’re glad to welcome him to the squad.”
