Defour - Burnley move was "right step"
Defour was not with the Red Devils at Euro 2016, but was selected by new boss Roberto Martinez for the games with Spain and Cyprus this week.
The former Anderlecht man met Martinez at Turf Moor after the recent 2-0 win over Liverpool, as he made his debut for the club, and Defour said to HLN: "I've been playing in the Premier League, it has certainly played a part in my selection. The English league has more respect. Therefore Burnley was the right step.
"We play a different kind of football.
