Axel Tuanzebe News: Plays second half in Carabao Cup

Tuanzebe (quadriceps) featured in the second half of Tuesday's 2-1 Carabao Cup victory against Derby County, confirming he is back available for Burnley.

Tuanzebe missed the beginning of the season with his new club due to a quadriceps injury that he has now recovered from. The defender played the whole second half in Tuesday's Carabao Cup victory and is now an option for coach Scott Parker moving forward. That said, Tuanzebe will likely hold a rotational role for the Clarets, so his return will not impact the starting squad.
