Burnley boss Sean Dyche hopes new signing Maxwel Cornet will be available for his side's Premier League trip to Everton on Monday.

Cornet, who sealed a reported £12.9 million move from Lyon in the transfer window, has linked up with the Clarets squad following international duty with the Ivory Coast.

The 24-year-old, who can play on both wings or as a full-back, played in the whole of his country's 2-1 World Cup qualifying win over Cameroon in Abidjan on Monday.
