Burnley winger Jacob Bruun Larsen: Best shape of my life

Burnley winger Jacob Bruun Larsen says he's in the best shape of his life.

The Dane is in his first season in the Premier League.

"I trained a lot before the season started, and then, together with my team and Burnley, I got myself back on the track where I need to be. I've got the right load in everyday life, so I don't get overloaded," Bruun Larsen told Bold.

In fact, the 25-year-old winger has yet to miss a session at Burnley.

"Not a single one. I've been there every day and haven't had to go out of practice or anything, so that's great. I feel like I'm in the shape of my life.

"It's clear that I haven't played all the games from the start, but I don't think there are that many who train every day and don't have any small blemishes along the way.

"In any case, it is the first time that I have tried it in a very, very long time, that there is no small problem, you are affected by some disease or something like that during a season.

"Before I signed with Burnley, they also pointed out that I have been injured a lot, and of course I respected that, but on the other hand I also knew that I would probably have to prove that I am fit."
