Manager Sean Dyche has signed a new contract to keep him at Burnley, the club have announced.

The 46-year-old, along with his assistant Ian Woan and first-team coach Tony Loughlan, has committed himself to the Clarets until 2022.

Dyche told the club's website: "I am quite young in management terms. I am still learning and still improving, I believe, so for my personal reasons, as well, I think it's the right place to be," Dyche told burnleyfootballclub.com.

"It's a very good environment and I enjoy it and I enjoy the connection I've had with this area.

"There's lots of work to be done, but I'm definitely 'in' for the work to be done."
