BURNLEY stunned fans by announcing the shock £12million signing of Aaron Ramsey.
And they did so with another brilliant video on social media.
The media team at Turf Moor have been on top form this summer with their spoof transfer clips including a superb Tweenies effort.
But their latest version sees the Clarets take an extract from the new Barbie movie before confirming 20-year-old Ramsey's arrival from Aston Villa.
The video, captioned "He's Kenough", shows the original Barbie and Ken – played by Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling – and a host of the other variations saying "hi" to each other on the beach.
The camera then cuts to Ramsey, leaning against the goalpost in front of a bright pink football pitch.
