Burnley had been looking for a new centre-back and the club's scouts have been impressed with what they have seen of the French under-21 international. Burnley know that the club need to sign new players if they are to survive for another season in the Premier League, and the arrival of Esteve is a major coup considering Borussia Dortmund were amongst his potential suitors.
