Hennessey joined the Clarets in the summer of 2021, signing a two-year deal.

The Bangor-born goalkeeper, who has been capped by Wales 96 times, began his career with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

After more than a decade with the West Midlands club, which included playing loan spells with Stockport County, where he set a then-Football League record of nine successive clean sheets, and Yeovil Town – the six-feet, six-inch keeper then joined Palace in January, 2014.

Hennessey went on to become first-choice keeper for the Eagles as they went about securing an uninterrupted eight-year run in the Premier League, before taking his number of appearances for the Londoners to 132, before ending his seven-and-a-half year stay with Palace in June 2021.

On the international front, Hennessey progressed through the Wales’ youth ranks to make his full debut in 2007.

The shot-stopper has since become a leading figure in Welsh football history, helping his country qualify for their first major tournament finals in almost 60 years and then reaching the semi-finals of Euro 2016.

He then started every game as Wales also qualified for the delayed Euro 2020 finals and the Welshman holds a record of 96 caps for a goalkeeper for his country and only six behind the overall appearance record held by defender Chris Gunter.
