The Clarets are facing a number of selection headaches as they prepare for their Premier League return.
Sean Dyche’s men are building up to resume their campaign at Manchester City on Monday night with nine games to go in a season held up for three months by the Covid-19 pandemic.
But strikers Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood and winger Johann Berg Gudmundsson will not be in the ranks that line up at the Etihad Stadium, with question marks over a number of other players approaching the end of their contracts.
“Unfortunately, we are down with Woody and Barnesy and down with Johann,” confirmed Dyche.
