Burnley midfielder Adam Phillips has moved across Lancashire to join Accrington Stanley on loan.

Phillips has ended a similar spell with Morecambe and now steps up a division to join Stanley's push for a League One promotion place for the remainder of the season.

“I enjoyed my time at Morecambe and this is a chance now to move up a division and test myself at the this level," said Phillips.

“I know a few of the lads at Accrington and I'm looking forward to the challenge of being involved there and helping them for the rest of the season."

Phillips is a former Liverpool trainee and England youth international.
