​Burnley keeper Pope seeing specialist on Monday

Burnley will know more about Nick Pope's shoulder injury after the goalkeeper sees a specialist on Monday.

Pope suffered a serious shoulder injury after a collision with teammate James Tarkowski during a clash with Aberdeen on Friday in the Europa League second-round qualifiers.

"He sees a specialist tomorrow (Monday). It's a definite dislocation but it is the grading of it and how the specialist views it.", manager Sean Dyche told Sky Sports News.

"I've spoke to him obviously and he is fine with the medics and that sort of stuff. We'll know more tomorrow. I can only imagine [he will be out for months] with that sort of injury, it won't be a matter of days."
