Joe Bauress will spend the season in League Two with Accrington Stanley, having recently made his full first-team debut.
The 19-year-old, who has been with the Clarets since the age of eight, first caught a glimpse of senior action under Vincent Kompany during the 2022/23 season, coming on as an 89th minute substitute during a Carabao Cup outing against Crawley Town.
The talented midfielder made his first start for the first-team last season, however, during the FA Cup third round victory over Reading. Bauress played the full 90 minutes as well as the 30 minutes of extra-time, as Scott Parker’s side won 3-1.
He followed that up with 30 minutes off the bench in the next round, a 1-0 victory over then Premier League side Southampton.
Bauress has since been part of Parker’s plans in pre-season and joined the Clarets out in Portugal for their warm-weather training camp.
Elsewhere, striker Joe Westley has left the club permanently to link up with Burnley’s partner club Dundee.
