Burnley have officially welcomed Jacob Bruun Larsen back to Turf Moor, sealing a four-year deal with the dynamic Danish winger after a successful loan stint last season. The 26-year-old returns from VfB Stuttgart in a deal reportedly worth around €4 million, giving the Clarets a familiar and proven asset as they gear up for their Premier League campaign. With promotion secured and ambition high, Burnley have wasted no time bringing back one of their most consistent contributors.
During his time on loan in 2023/24, Bruun Larsen made a strong impression—netting six goals and delivering a string of impactful performances despite being used primarily as a substitute. In just over 1,200 minutes of game time, he showed sharp instincts in front of goal, clever movement, and an ability to create space for teammates. His energy and attacking mindset made him a fan favourite and a regular threat off the bench.
Speaking after signing the deal, Bruun Larsen couldn’t hide his excitement. “Coming back to Burnley was a no-brainer,” he said. “I loved every minute here last season, and I always felt like there was unfinished business.” The Danish international praised the club’s direction under manager Scott Parker and admitted that the bond he formed with the supporters played a major role in his decision to return.
For Burnley, this move represents more than just continuity—it’s a calculated statement. In Bruun Larsen, they’re getting a player with top-flight experience, Bundesliga pedigree, and a deep understanding of the squad’s rhythm. As the Clarets aim to stay up and compete, the return of a motivated, already-adapted winger could prove to be one of the smartest and most sentimental moves of their summer business.
