For a bit of fun, we've used the latest edition of Football Manager to travel five years into the future, and taken a look at how Burnley's side shapes up. This is how the management simulator predicts the Clarets will be lining up in January 2026.
13. Sub 2: James Tarkowski
He's lost his place in the starting XI, for now, but he's now the club captain and vital part of the club. Photo: Alex Pantling
14. Sub 3: Michael Olise
Sadly for Olise, his career hasn't taken off as many hoped it would. He's struggling for game time at Turf Moor, and looks to be close to joining Crystal Palace. Photo: Naomi Baker

The powerful defender is a new signing from MLS side Austin FC, and he's looking to become a Premier League mainstay having previously turned out for Plymouth Argyle and Fulham. Photo: Dan Mullan
