'I'm well-aware' - Largie Ramazani's first words as Burnley player after switch from Leeds United
Largie Ramazani has discussed his deadline day move from Leeds United to Burnley
Largie Ramazani has spoken of his familiarity with Burnley after joining the club on loan from Leeds United.
During the 2024/25 season, Leeds and Burnley were vying for the Championship title in a thrilling promotion race.
Ramazani was in the Leeds ranks and played a bit-part role as Daniel Farke’s side got over the finish line and lifted the trophy.
He even mocked the Clarets with a social media post when Leeds clinched the title, but previous rivalry has now been put aside.
The 25-year-old has made a season-long loan move to Turf Moor and the deal he has signed contains a buy obligation clause.
Largie Ramazani’s first words as Burnley player
After putting pen to paper, the winger said: “It feels amazing. I'm well-aware of Burnley as a club from the competition we had a couple of years ago and it's a great club.
“I know a few of the players here already too, so it's a really exciting move for me and I'm ready to show what I can do and help Burnley get back to the Premier League.
“I have experience from playing in this league and creating that winning environment, so I'm hoping I can bring something to the team on and off the pitch.”
Largie Ramazani’s tumble down Leeds United pecking order
Leeds deemed Ramazani surplus to requirements last summer, allowing him to spend the 2025/26 season on loan in Spain with Valencia.
A buy clause was not included in the deal that sent him to Spain, leaving the door open for a potential return to the Leeds fold.
However, it was firmly closed when the wideman returned to England and was left out of the travelling squad for Leeds’ pre-season tour of the USA.
There was talk of interest from Italy late in the window but Burnley moved to secure his signature, adding Championship experience and flair to their attack.
