Burnley forward Jacob Bruun Larsen ruled out for up to three months

Burnley forward Jacob Bruun Larsen is sidelined for up to three months due to a stress fracture. The 28-year-old has scored twice in nine Championship appearances this season. Burnley head coach Nicky Hayen also confirmed that veteran striker Jamie Vardy will miss the upcoming match against Lincoln due to a back injury. The team sits at the bottom of the table with just one win from their first 11 league matches. The Clarets are attempting to improve their form, having not won at home since October 18, 2025, and need to secure a victory against Portsmouth on October 31 to avoid setting an EFL record for the longest gap between home wins.
