Chelsea striker David Datro Fofana has made a temporary move to Burnley for the rest of the Premier League campaign.

  • The Ivorian joined Union Berlin on loan during the first half of the season, but he struggled to impress with just two goals from 17 appearances.

    The 21-year-old also had issues with the manager over there and there were no surprises that the Blues recalled him by triggering a break clause.

    He has now joined the Clarets on a short-term loan and will be hoping to guide them out of the relegation zone in the next four-and-a-half months.

    Burnley have been in the drop zone since their return to the top-flight. They are currently four points adrift of 17th-placed Everton in the standings.

    Vincent Kompany's side are not far away from safety, but they have lacked the presence of a striker, who can convert their chances into goals.

    Fofana was a revelation during his time at Molde before joining Chelsea. He will be aiming to find the same form with the Clarets going forward.
