Burnley Players in Champions League

Post by Down_Rover » Thu Dec 09, 2021 9:54 am

I was trying to work out how many players who had been on Burnley's books since our first promotion in 2009 who has also played in the Champions League

I got as far as 13

Can anyone beat that?

Bit earlier than 2009 but Luke Chadwick made a few appearances in the CL. Slightly earlier still, David May.

Arfield played in Rangers' 3rd round CL qualifier this season. They lost so they didn't make the group stage, so I don't know if that means by definition that hasn't played Champions league.
