Burnley has signed Mike Tresor on loan from Genk on the deadline day.
Burnley FC is delighted to announce the signing of Belgium midfielder Mike Tresor on loan from Genk on the crucial deadline day of this year's summer transfer window.
A creative attacking midfielder, Tresor has scored nine goals for Genk over the last two seasons while registering an incredible 33 assists.
Tresor started his youth career at Anderlecht and later moved to the Netherlands to play for NEC in the Eredivisie second division. He spent two seasons there, scoring seven goals in 29 games.
Then, he made a move to the top-tier Dutch side Willem II. During his time there, the 24-year-old scored 14 goals in 60 appearances in the Eredivisie.
In the summer of 2021, he transferred to Genk in the Belgian Pro League. He has played almost 100 matches for Genk and had a great season last year, scoring eight goals.
Tresor won the Player of the Year prize in the Belgian top flight last season and came up against the Clarets during pre-season.
“I’m feeling really happy," he told the club website.
“The project and of course the vision of the coach here, I had a long discussion with the coach so that convinced me at the end to make the decision.
“I can’t wait to join the group. I’m excited to see the team play and hopefully after, join them on the field.”
