Burton have broken their transfer record for the second time in a week with the signing of Australia international Jackson Irvine from Ross County.
The fee for the 23-year-old has not been revealed, but the Brewers have confirmed it is more than the undisclosed amount paid on Tuesday for previous record signing Kyle McFadzean.
Irvine, who has represented his country four times, has signed a three-year deal with the Sky Bet Championship new boys.
He told Burton's official website: "I couldn't be happier that the deal has gone through and it's great timing and I'm now ready to focus on the football.
"When I first heard of the interest it was very flattering and it was a deal I wanted to make happen if possible. It has taken a bit of time, but now it's gone through I'm so excited to be a part of it here, playing in the Championship and testing myself against that calibre of team."
Irvine joined Celtic from Melbourne Victory's youth team in 2010 and then spent time on loan at Kilmarnock and Ross County before signing a permanent deal with the latter last summer.
Brewers boss Nigel Clough said: "He's an Australian international who has got good experience in Scotland with Celtic and most recently Ross County.
"He's still relatively young, but he's one that we think can still improve with us and he wants a chance to play in England."
