Chris Wood is on his way back to Turf Moor following his international return for New Zealand.
Wood played for 76 minutes of the All Whites’ friendly 3-1 defeat against a Republic of Ireland side captained by Clarets team-mate Robbie Brady.
It was a first appearance at international level for two years for Wood – the record goalscorer for his country.
But the in-form Burnley frontman, who has scored five times in his last five Premier League appearances wrapped around a two-match injury absence, will not be involved in the All White’s friendly in Lithuania on Sunday and will report back for training with the Clarets.
