Vokes on the road to recovery
Vokes suffered a ruptured cruciate knee ligament in the game against Championship winners Leicester City in late March, after netting a career-best 21 goals to help fire Burnley to promotion.
The Wales international isn’t ready to join in full training just yet, but boss Sean Dyche is encouraged by his recovery: “He’s doing well, we’ve had him on the top pitch with us and he’s going along nicely.
