  2. Blackburn a 'special' club to Burton's Bowyerpublished at 14:50 BST 6 August

    Gary Bowyer has said Blackburn is a "special" club for him as Burton Albion prepare to host Rovers at the Pirelli Stadium in the EFL Cup on Saturday (15:00 BST).

    Bowyer learned much of his trade at Ewood Park, having first joined as the under-18s coach in 2004. He then went on to have two separate stints as caretaker manager before being appointed permanently in 2013.

    Bowyer was dismissed in November 2015, bringing to an end over a decade at the club.

    "The club is special to me," Bowyer said.

    "I had an incredible time there. To have been involved in one club for so long going through your coaching career is very rare these days.

    "From Graeme Souness, who just had the charisma, to Mark Hughes, to Sam Allardyce, to Paul Ince - unbelievable managers to pick brains from."

    Manager Alfred Johansson says Motherwell have signed an "attack-minded and exciting defender" in Dylan Williams.

    The 22-year-old has joined the Fir Park side from Burton Albion for an undisclosed fee, penning a two-year deal with the club holding the option of a further year.

    The former Chelsea and Derby youth player is eligible for Motherwell's Conference League second-round qualifier against Faroese outfit HB.

    "A humble young man, Dylan has been in first-team environments since he broke into the Derby County team at a young age," said Johansson.

    "He is an incredibly mature man, and we've had some excellent discussions about what we want Dylan to do in our system.

    "He is an attack-minded and exciting defender, but most importantly, he works incredibly hard for his team-mates."

    Williams, who played 31 times for League One Burton last season, added: "I've spoken to a number of people about Motherwell. Everyone has had positive things to say about the club.

    "The initial discussions with the manager were encouraging, and he's been so clear on what he wants me to do. Key messaging and a clear desire to bring me to the club meant it was an easy decision to come here."

    Gbemi Arubi leaves Dundalk sitting fourth in the Irish Premier Division

    Burton Albion have signed Dundalk forward Gbemi Arubi on a three-year deal, with the option of an additional year, for an undisclosed fee.

    The 22-year-old has scored seven goals in 23 Irish Premier Division appearances in the 2025-26 season, helping earn him a Republic of Ireland Under-21s debut in their 2-2 draw with Croatia in June.

    Though the move will be Arubi's first outside his home country, he has previously trained in England for a short spell with Lincoln City before joining up with Waterford in January 2024.

    Arubi is Burton's fourth summer signing, following goalkeeper Corey Addai, forward Matthew Dennis and defender Curtis Tilt.
