Clarke Carlisle Is A Claret!
Burnley have completed the signing of defender Clarke Carlisle from Watford.
The 27-year-old has agreed a three-year deal with the Clarets for a fee of £200,000 and could now make his debut in Saturday's Championship game at Scunthorpe.
An imposing centre-half, Carlisle started his career with Blackpool, where his strong defensive performances attracted the attentions of QPR, who paid £250,000 for his services in 2000.
He enjoyed three seasons in London, helping the R's secure promotion to the Championship before joining Leeds United on a free transfer in summer 2004.
The former England Under 21 International made 38 appearances for the Yorkshire side, returning south after one season to join the Hornets in summer 2005 for £100,000.
Pitched straight into the defensive line in his first season at Vicarage Road Carlisle acquitted himself well, playing a key role as the Hornets finished in third place and gained promotion to the Premiership.
The Preston-born defender had a loan spell at Luton last season, playing against Burnley in the Hatters' 0-0 draw at Turf Moor back in March.
At 6' 3" Carlisle is a constant threat from set pieces and has scored over 20 career goals.
He has been allocated the number 5 shirt at Turf Moor. Burnley
