Goalkeeper earns professional contract

Burnley Football Club are pleased to announce the signing of goalkeeper Jack Robinson, who has signed his first professional contract with the Clarets.

That deal runs until the summer of 2027, and the 18-year-old moves to Lancashire having completed his scholarship with Bradford City.

“This is a really good opportunity and I’m really excited,” he said.

“It’s a real proud moment for me and my family and with all the hard work that we’ve put in over the last few years, it means a lot.

“There seems to be a really good development line here, because if you’re not playing you can go out on loan.

“I had a trial here last season, which was good, and I’ve really enjoyed settling in well again now.”

Having been in the Academy system at Leeds United in his younger years, Robinson then went on to spend two years at Hull City.

He signed two-year scholarship terms with Bradford City in the summer of 2024, representing their U17s and U19s sides.

One of the highlights of his time at the Bantams was his involvement in their run to the third round of the FA Youth Cup last season.

Robinson was able to captain the team against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, although the West Yorkshire outfit were unable to avoid defeat.

Academy Manager Chris Casper added: “Jack has earned this contract following his time here last season, because he has the qualities we look for in a goalkeeper.

“If he can settle into the new environment well and work hard with his coaches and fellow ‘keepers, I’m sure he will continue to improve.”
