Burnley seek Uefa permission to register extra keeper for Aberdeen tie | Football

Sean Dyche has sought Uefa’s permission to register a goalkeeper before Burnley’s Europa League second leg against Aberdeen at Turf Moor on Thursday.

Dyche made the move owing to the dislocated shoulder Nick Pope suffered early in the first half of the 1-1 first-leg draw at Pittodrie.

Tom Heaton’s calf problem means he is almost definitely ruled out, leaving Dyche’s sole registered keeper as Anders Lindegaard, the former Manchester United player, with Adam Legzdins, a reserve who has never played for the first team, set to be on the bench if he is registered in time.
