Vincent Kompany’s comments about Burnley’s injury ahead of Sheffield United’s meeting suggests potential problems

Due to an infection, Muric was unable to play in last week’s 2-1 loss to West Ham, and Cork is presently out due to a knock he received during practice.

Before the pair’s return to Turf Moor on Saturday, manager Vincent Kompany gave an update, indicating that neither will be available again.

“Aro is still having some difficulties. “Corky won’t be prepared for this week either,” he remarked.

We’ll see because Aro hasn’t really trained this week.

Kompany is hoping there won’t be any new injury concerns before what many see as a crucial victory over Burnley’s relegation rivals.

Kompany said, “Yeah, but meanwhile we’ve had a training session this morning so the honest answer is that we’ll see,” in response to the question of whether players that were available against West Ham last week were still fit. I may have to make one late phone call to the doctor tonight.

However, the Clarets manager did allude to a possible problem that may have been discovered during training.

Lyle Foster, who is still on leave to obtain specialized treatment for his mental health, will also not be playing for Burnley.

Regarding Sheffield United, their long-term injuries have sidelined a number of players. Among them are Rhian Brewster, Tom Davies, Rhys Norrington-Davies, Chris Basham, John Egan, and Daniel Jebbison (all thigh).

Vinicius Souza and Jayden Bogle, who last week barely made it to halftime against Bournemouth after being knocked out, are anticipated to be healthy.
