Striker David Nugent has pledged to use his loan extension from Portsmouth FC to help Burnley FC escape relegation.
Nugent’s temporary tenure at Turf Moor looked to be ending in the transfer window but the two clubs finally agreed a deal.
Now the striker is looking to help new boss Brian Laws keep the Clarets in the Premier League next season.
Speaking on the club’s website he said: "I'm just glad that it's all sorted and I am a Burnley player to the end of the season and hopefully longer.
"I had a few things to discuss at the Portsmouth end and there was some stuff that went on I don't want to talk about but it's all done and I'm glad to be here now.
"It has been hard. I missed the last game because of it all.
"I got called back to Portsmouth, then got told to come back to Burnley but didn't make it in time.
"I missed the game because I had to sign by five o'clock that day, which didn't happen.
"It's been so confusing but I want to get my head down now and concentrate on playing for Burnley.
"I really want to get back in the side and start playing well again and score some goals and get Burnley away from the relegation zone."
