Burnley signing Taylor Harwood-Bellis admits he couldn't turn down another opportunity to work with Vincent Kompany.

The young Manchester City defender, who played under Kompany at Anderlecht, will spend the 2022/23 season at Turf Moor.

He told the club's website: "I worked with him at Anderlecht for the first half of the [2021/22] season. It's class working with him and when he called me again, I knew straight away [that I'd come].

"It was the same feeling as when he called me before I went to Anderlecht. It's a big loan for me in my career and progression.

"I feel like it was the right decision to come here with the football club and the manager.

"It's a compliment [that Kompany wants to work with me again]. I was buzzing when he called me and it was a no-brainer with the club, not just the manager, although he was a big part of it.

"I watched him growing up and he was the person I watched being a City fan. He was huge and to work under him again will be class, I'm looking forward to it."
