The French midfielder has penned a five-year deal with the Clarets for a fee of more than £20 million ($26.7 million), close to the £23.2 million ($31.02 million) the Blues paid to bring him in from Rennes in 2023, BBC Sport reports.
"It's a great feeling to sign for Burnley," Ugochukwu was quoted as saying by BBC Sport.
"As soon as I was made aware of the club's interest in signing me, I was keen to hear more about the project. I spoke to the manager and Maxime [Esteve] - they were both so passionate about the club and the direction it's heading in.
"It feels like this is the perfect move for me at this stage of my career with the ambition the club is showing."
