Burnley were dealt a double blow on Saturday afternoon after suffering defeat to Aston Villa was coupled by an injury to central defender James Tarkowski.
A reliable figure for the Clarets in the heart of defence, the 29-year-old was forced off only two minutes into the second half at Turf Moor after suffering a hamstring issue. He will now be assessed in the coming days, according to LancsLive.
Tarkowski, who is currently the stand-in caption of the side, went down after a header and headed straight for the tunnel after leaving the field of play. This is already a problem position for Burnley, who are already without captain Ben Mee and could now be without another consistent performer.
