Career
Milton Keynes Dons
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]
2013–14
In May 2014, he made his professional debut for the club in a 3–1 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]
2014–15
In September 2014 Charlie moved to Cambridge City on a month's loan as cover for the injured Zac Barrett and Richard Knight.[4]
Burns 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.
2015–16
On 15 January 2016, Burns joined Southern Premier League side Hayes & Yeading on an initial one-month loan. He went on to make five appearances for the club before being recalled to his parent club.[7]
With injuries and suspensions affecting Milton Keynes Dons goalkeepers David Martin and Cody Cropper respectively, Burns featured for the first team in four Championship fixtures. On 19 April 2016 Burns achieved his first clean sheet for the club in a 0–0 draw with Sheffield Wednesday.[8]
