West Bromwich Albion can confirm Republic of Ireland international Dara O’Shea has joined Premier League side Burnley for an undisclosed fee.
The Academy graduate made a total of 107 appearances for the Baggies after joining the club as a 16-year-old from Dublin-based St Kevin’s Boys.
His breakthrough into the senior side came under Slaven Bilić during the 2019/20 promotion campaign, and he enjoyed regular Premier League game time the following season.
The 24-year-old earned 19 caps for his country while at Albion and was named the FAI Young Player of the Year in 2020 following an impressive step up to international football.
O’Shea added more memorable achievements to his Hawthorns career last season, captaining the team for the first time against Hull City in August and passing the 100-match milestone in February’s game at Birmingham City.
Dara will always be welcome at The Hawthorns and leaves with the best wishes of everyone associated with the club.
