Burnley midfielder Aiden O'Neill has returned to his native Australia on a season-long loan with Central Coast Mariners. The Brisbane-born 20-year-old managed three Premier League appearances for the Clarets in the 2016-17 season prior to a short spell with Oldham Athletic.

He joined Fleetwood Town on loan last term and appeared 21 times in League One. O'Neill, who has represented Australia at Under-23 level, could yet become a teammate of Usain Bolt.

The Jamaican sprinter is set to undergo an indefinite trial with the A-League side in an attempt to win a playing contract.
