Burnley have completed the signing of goalkeeper Nicky Weaver, on a free transfer from Scottish side Dundee United.

The former Manchester City and England Under-21 international has signed a deal until the end of the season.

Weaver becomes Brian Laws' third signing in the transfer window, following the acquisitions of Kevin Long, from Cork City, and the loan signing Frederic Nimani from Monaco.

The 30-year-old started his career at Mansfield Town before playing for Manchester City, Charlton Athletic and Dundee United. He also spent a loan spell at Sheffield United and made ten appearances for the England U21s.
