Jonjo Shelvey: Burnley sign former England midfielder on short-term deal

Burnley have signed former Newcastle United and England midfielder Jonjo Shelvey until the end of the season.

The 32-year-old joins following the expiration of his contract with Turkish Super Lig club Eyupspor.

An England international with five caps, Shelvey also played in Turkey with Caykur Rizespor and arrives at Turf Moor having been on trial with the Championship club this month.

“I like the club as a whole – every time I have played against Burnley at Turf Moor it’s been tough,” he said.

“I’m part of this team now and my aim is to do my best to help this club get back into the Premier League, where it belongs.”

Having come through Charlton’s academy, he went on to join Liverpool and made 65 appearances for the Reds before joining Swansea City.

He spent three years with the Swans and then signed for Newcastle United in 2016 where he helped them win promotion from the Championship in his first full season.

After seven years at Newcastle, Shelvey joined Nottingham Forest before leaving for Turkey in September 2023.

He joins a Burnley side third in the Championship table and two points off the automatic promotion places.
