He will now spend the remainder of the season on loan with the Cobbers, who sit 20th in League One, five points ahead of the relegation zone.

“I’m delighted to have signed a new contract for Burnley,” Costelloe said.

“Having come through the academy to be part of the Premier League squad a year later was amazing.

“The club have continued to support my development as a footballer and I’m now looking forward to the next step with a loan spell at Northampton Town.”

Burnley say the Irishman’s contract will run until June 2026.
