  • Out of action: Nick Pope.

    Burnley’s Nick Pope has undergone an operation on a dislocated shoulder to leave the club facing a goalkeeping headache.

    The news was announced by Sean Dyche at a press conference ahead of the Europa League second qualifying round second leg against Aberdeen.

    Tom Heaton is also a doubt and Dyche revealed the club have applied for UEFA dispensation to bring in a goalkeeper for Thursday’s tie.
