The 21-year-old has joined Joey Barton’s Bristol Rovers for the 2022/23 campaign.

Thomas spent time in Everton’s and Crewe’s youth academies, before being signed by the Clarets.

He was handed his first senior deal in 2019, and made his debut in a EFL Cup game against Millwall the following year.

He has enjoyed previous loan spells with Kendal Town and Barrow.
