About Burnley FC

Burnley Football Club is a professional football club based in Burnley, Lancashire, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football, but will compete in the EFL Championship in the 2026–27 season following relegation. Founded in 1882, Burnley were one of the first to become professional and subsequently put pressure on the Football Association to permit payments to players. They entered the FA Cup for the first time in 1885–86 and were one of the 12 founder members of the Football League in 1888–89, the world's first league football competition.
