📸 Burnley forward continues to be a bright spark in a doomed season 🔥 | OneFootball

It's been another torrid season for Burnley in the Premier League with relegation long confirmed. 

However, one or two players have shone, notably Jaidon Anthony, who has given them a surprise lead against Aston Villa. 

After their Europa League exploits on Thursday night, Unai Emery's men started slowly and the Clarets made them pay inside nine minutes. 

Some neat build up play saw the ball come to Lesley Ugochukwu and his shot was not dealt with well enough by Emiliano Martínez, with the Argentine keeper only parrying it into the path of Anthony, who made no mistake from close range.

The opener made it eight league goals for the season for the 26-year-old and could cause problems yet for Villa in their bid for a top five finish. 

With Burnley heading back to the Championship, could Anthony move elsewhere and stay in the top flight?
