Later that year, Obafemi was called up to the Ireland senior squad after representing the Boys in Green from U19-U23 level and made his debut against Denmark as a substitute in a UEFA Nations League clash. The striker now has seven caps to his name, with two goals for the senior set-up.
Obafemi then made the switch to Swansea in the summer of 2021 after five seasons at Southampton and now becomes Vincent Kompany’s fourth signing of the January transfer window.
After joining on loan, Obafemi said: "I'm glad to be here. It's been a busy few days, but I am just glad that it's finally done now.
"When I first heard of Burnley's interest in the summer I was adamant to come here, obviously it didn't happen then but now I'm here and I just can't wait to play in the Claret and Blue."
