Former Blues goalkeeper Lawrence Vigouroux has signed for English Premier League outfit Burnley FC after impressing for League Two champions Leyton Orient last season.
The 29-year-old, who joined Waterford FC on loan from Swindon Town in 2018, made 19 league appearances during his spell at the club before returning to England.
The ex-Liverpool and Spurs youth player told the Clarets club website: "It’s amazing to be here! An unbelievable training ground to be a part of and I’m really happy!
"You only have to look around where we’re working and training every day. This was the right step and the right way to go. Hopefully I can leave an impression here."
Burnley boss Vincent Kompany added: "We are looking forward to Lawrence being part of what we are building here at Burnley.
"He has come through top academy systems to become the player he is today with stand out performances in recent years.
"He is a very talented goalkeeper with a good personality and someone we will enjoy working with."
Vigouroux's arrival comes following Burnley's capture of Republic of Ireland defender Dara O’Shea from West Brom.
