Burnley boss Dyche using international break to accelerate Brady recovery

Burnley boss Sean Dyche says they'll use the international break to accelerate Robbie Brady's injury return.

The Irish wide-man has suffered a number of minor setbacks in his recovery from a serious knee injury.

And Dyche admitted he was hopeful of Brady getting more game time during the two-week window.

He explained: “Robbie has had a few days on the grass, so we have to build him up next week and see if we can get to games again.

“He hasn't played 90 minutes yet – he's been close - but he's had a few niggles which sometimes happens, so we have to be more careful

“But a two-week break allows us to work with him in that period and hopefully we can get another reserve team into him to get him closer to being back involved."
