Robbie Burton (born 26 December 1999) is a professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Prva HNL club Istra 1961, on loan from Dinamo Zagreb.

Born in England, he represents Wales at youth international level.

Club Career

Burton began his career with Teviot Rangers, signing for Arsenal at the age of 6. He turned professional in summer 2018. He became captain of the Arsenal under-23 team for the 2019–20 season.

In February 2020 he moved to Croatian club Dinamo Zagreb, playing initially for their second team in the Druga HNL.

The transfer was reportedly worth up to £800,000. He made two appearances for Dinamo Zagreb II in Druga HNL, against Hrvatski Dragovoljac and Sesvete on 28 February and 8 March respectively, getting sent off during the latter match. Following a good performance in a 3–0 friendly win over Celje on 8 August, coach Zoran Mamic decided to give Burton a chance in the first team. He made his Prva HNL debut on 16 August 2020 in a 6–0 win over Lokomotiva. On 5 November 2020, he made his European debut for Dinamo in the 1–0 Europa League victory over Wolfsberg.

On 21 August 2021, Burton was loaned out to Istra 1961 until the end of the season.
