Veteran goalkeeper Paul Robinson penned a new one-year contract with Burnley after joining on a short-term deal in January.

The 36-year-old will provide backup to Tom Heaton, who is currently away with England on Euro 2016 duty.

"We are delighted to have Paul back on board," manager Sean Dyche said of the 41-time Three Lions international.

"He continues to work hard at his profession and his wealth of experience is hugely beneficial to the team and, in particular, the goalkeeping department."

Robinson has also represented Leeds United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Blackburn Rovers.

Burnley begins its Premier League return in the visit of Swansea City on the weekend of Aug. 13.
