“Lyle will still be a few weeks,” Parker said, as per Burnley Express.
“He had a big injury, so it will be a few weeks. But Joe Worrall is in the right place.
“We’ve got some big players on the treatment table, Aaron Ramsey, Jordan Beyer, Nathan Redmond…they’re moving in the right direction and hopefully we can get them back and they can also help and add to what we need.”
Foster has notched up nine appearances for Burnley in the Championship this campaign, registering one goal and one assist.
