Kevin Long signs new Burnley contract

He has been with the Clarets since joining from Cork City in 2010, and the new deal would see him stay with the side until 2021.

Long told Burnley's official website: "Talks started at the end of last season and moved on from there.

"I came back in the summer to go again and I still really enjoy being here and I'm delighted that it will be for another three years.

"Ever since I've been here the club has gone from strength to strength. 

"It's progressed massively, and I think it will continue to do, as long as we keep making sure the performances on the pitch are moving forward."

Long has made five appearances in all competitions for Burnley so far this season.
