Burnley Football Club are pleased to confirm the arrival of France U20 international Wilson Odobert from Troyes for an undisclosed fee.
After becoming a Claret, Odobert said: “The project here excited me, I really liked it. The manager, the team, the town. I really love it and it’s a really good project for me
“I want to play as much as possible at Burnley, do as well as I can with the team, stay in the team and play the best I possibly can for the club.”
n in Meaux, Odobert joined Paris Saint Germain’s academy in 2017 and progressed through the ranks before rejecting a professional deal with the club last year and opting to join Troyes to play first-team football.
Despite Troyes’ relegation to Ligue 2, the wide man still managed to make an impression despite his tender years.
Odobert has been capped three times by France’s Under-20 side, scoring once, having also represented his country in the Under-16, Under-18 and Under-19 age groups.
He becomes Burnley’s 11th addition of the summer, following in the footsteps of Sander Berge who completed his move to Turf Moor last week.
Vincent Kompany also expects the clue to tie up the signing of midfielder Aaron Ramsey from Aston Villa.
