Maxime Esteve
23-Year-Old
Burnley
Premier
Only dealing with cramp
Esteve was taken off as a precaution due to a cramp in Saturday's 1-1 draw to Liverpool, according to manager Scott Parker, per Matt Scrafton of the Burnley Express. "No, it looked like it was cramp. He was getting cramps in both quads. That's what it was, so hopefully not too serious."
ANALYSIS
Eseteve had to be taken off 16 minutes before the final whistle on Saturday, but has avoided an injury, with the defender instead dealing with cramps and leaving due to caution. This is good news for the club, as it appears they will avoid an injury scare for their defender. He should then remain in the starting XI moving forward, starting in all 19 of his appearances.

Won't be risked
Esteve (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's match against Brighton, according to manager Scott Parker. "Max won't make the weekend. He's done some work on the grass today, but obviously, with the dynamics of how things went the last game, really, it's probably too much to risk with such a short turnaround. We can't afford the same situation in-game to have to make changes that early. We're siding on the air of caution. Pick him up, get some good work into him, and hopefully he'll be fit for Wednesday. We're hoping for a speedy recovery.
