“I just want to say I’m honoured to have played for Burnley Football Club,” said Defour as quoted by the club’s official website.
“I want to thank the gaffer and his staff and the medical staff for taking care of me. I wish I could have shown more on the pitch, but unfortunately, it wasn’t meant to be. I wanted to show more because the support was really fantastic.

“But I’m very honoured I’ve played for Burnley and that I’ve grown with this club and we made progress together. I hope they will remember me as a player when he was on the pitch, he gave his all and tried to give some joy to the fans.
“I enjoyed every second of playing for Burnley and I will always be a fan of Burnley Football Club,” he concluded.
