Career

Born in Croydon, Burns joined the youth system of Milton Keynes Dons as a sixteen-year-old in 2011 on a two-year scholarship.[2] After completing his scholarship in the summer of 2013, Burns was told that he was free to find another club.[3] However, the club then went on to reverse their decision and allowed Burns to complete a third year as a scholar.[2] In May 2014, he made his professional debut for the club in a 31 defeat to Leyton Orient, replacing David Martin as a substitute.[2] Burns then went on to sign his first professional contract on a one-year deal, with the option of a further year.[2] In September 2014 Charlie moved to Cambridge City on a month's loan as cover for the injured Zac Barrett and Richard Knight.[4] He then moved on loan to Truro City on an initial month's loan.[5] which was then extended to the end of the season.[6] He was recalled in February 2015 following injury to Milton Keynes Dons first choice David Martin.
