Chelsea loanee returns to Stamford Bridge

Danny Drinkwater’s loan spell at Burnley has come to an end having made just two appearances for the club. The England international joined the Clarets in August after only making five Premier League starts for Chelsea. Drinkwater managed just 59 minutes in the Premier League, in the 4-1 home defeat to Manchester City last month, after playing in the Carabao Cup defeat to Sunderland in August. “He just hasn’t had the pitch-time,” said Burnley manager Sean Dyche, confirming that Drinkwater will return to Chelsea when his loan deal expires on Monday. “There was a moment in between when we had injuries where he probably would have played, but these things happen in football.” Source- talkSport
