Jay Rodriguez returns home as Burnley seal £10m deal with West Brom

  /  autty

Burnley-born Jay Rodriguez has returned to his hometown club in a £10million switch from West Bromwich Albion.

The 29-year-old forward has signed a two-year deal after the Turf Moor club agreed to pay his release clause.

Rodriguez came through the Clarets youth system and made 129 first-team appearances before joining Southampton for £7m in 2012.

The England international of one cap joined West Brom in 2017 and scored 22 goals in the Championship last season only to miss out on promotion after a play-off semi-final defeat by Aston Villa.

Burnley showed interest last year and manager Sean Dyche has opted to pay the clause which will see Albion receive £10m.
