Dubravka suffered a shoulder injury before his transfer to Burnley and is still recovering after missing Saturday's friendly in South Korea, according to former manager Eddie Howe, per Lee Ryder of The Chronicle. "Martin was scheduled to travel out, but he had a shoulder problem and went to see a specialist (abroad), and I think he had an injection. We are awaiting feedback. I think he will be OK."

Dubravka was dealt to Burnley this week from Newcastle but did not arrive fully fit, as he still seems to be nursing a shoulder injury after he was unable to play in their friendly Saturday. This will be something to monitor with the season within a week of starting, set to face Tottenham on Aug. 16. He will now be in jeopardy of missing the opener would could hurt his chances at maintaing a starting role this season, as Max Weiss will now have a chance to show his worth when the spot for goalie was already up in the air.
