Burnley have confirmed the signing of young Bournemouth striker Danny Ings for an undisclosed fee.
19-year-old Ings has signed a four-year deal at Turf Moor to reunite with Eddie Howe, his former manager at Bournemouth.
The highly-rated centre forward is believed to have cost the Clarets an initial £200,000, with add-ons and additional payments eventually moving the figure up in the region of £1million.
The Clarets confirmed at the weekend that they had agreed a fee with Eddie Howe's old club for the 19-year-old.
Ings, who can also play in midfield, scored eight goals last season after breaking into the Bournemouth first team in Howe’s final month at the club.
Ings was at Turf Moor today to finalise the deal and is expected to be available for Saturday's home game against Cardiff.
He has been given squad number 14.
