Fabio Celestini confirms another injury setback for Burnley’s Dastan Satpayev

Burnley head coach Fabio Celestini has confirmed that forward Dastan Satpayev is facing another spell on the sidelines due to a muscular problem. The 18-year-old Chelsea loanee was absent from the squad for Burnley's 0-0 draw against Portsmouth on Saturday, which marked Celestini's first match in charge. Satpayev had only recently returned from a prior hamstring issue, and Burnley is currently liaising with Chelsea to determine the full extent of the setback.

Celestini also noted that striker Armando Broja faces an extended absence after suffering a groin issue against Lincoln City. On a more positive note for the Clarets, Anel Ahmedhodzic, Aaron Ramsey, Jaydon Banel, and Josh Cullen all returned to the squad on the weekend, with Cullen making his first appearance since sustaining an ACL injury in December 2025.
