City defender Alleyne joins Burnley on loan
Burnley has signed Manchester City centre-back Max Alleyne on a season-long loan deal.
The 21-year-old spent the first half of the 2025-2026 season on loan with EFL Championship side Watford before returning to City amid an injury crisis.
He featured seven times under Guardiola last season, playing in both semi-final legs of the Carabao Cup against Newcastle United and in the UEFA Champions League against Bodo/Glimt.
He will now look to help Burnley return to the Premier League after its relegation from the top flight last term.
"I'm super excited, I can't wait to get going," the England Under-21 international said.
"I had my first training session today and I've really enjoyed it so far, meeting the manager and my team-mates.
"I first heard of the interest a couple of months ago now and I'm so glad it got done. It's a huge team, a Premier League team to be honest and I'm so buzzing to be here."
Burnley's Championship campaign starts on Monday (AEST) when it hosts West Ham United, which was also relegated last season, at Turf Moor.
