The Clarets aren’t back in action until Saturday, April 11 when they host Brighton due to a combination of the upcoming international window and the FA Cup quarter-finals.
Martin Dubravka, Max Weiss, Axel Tuanzebe, Lesley Ugochukwu, Hannibal, Lyle Foster and Armando Broja have all received call-ups for their respective nations.
But doubts remain over the availability of Tuanzebe and Hannibal owing to current injuries. Tuanzebe is on his way back from an Achilles injury, but hasn’t played since the start of February. But he will be desperate to feature in DR Congo’s World Cup play-off decider.
Oliver Sonne, currently out on loan, also earns a recall to the Peru squad following his January move to Sparta Prague, while Luca Koleosho, currently at Paris FC, features for Italy Under 21s.
A number of other internationals, such as Connor Roberts (Wales), Josh Cullen (Republic of Ireland) and Zeki Amdouni (Switzerland) are currently sidelined by injuries.

The likes of Hjalmar Ekdal (Sweden), Quilindschy Hartman (Netherlands) and Jacob Bruun Larsen (Denmark) haven’t received call ups.
