Burnley are also experiencing nightmares in the Championship, where after 5 weeks they find themselves in last place in the standings with only 2 points. On the last day of the transfer window, Burnley released their main striker, Flemming, making Broja the main alternative, but on the field the opposite resulted, with the red and black striker once again being activated as a substitute.

In 5 weeks, Burnley have only scored 6 goals, causing the club to enter the transfer market to approach a striker like Jamie Vardy. The English "Bomber" was a free agent after leaving Cremonese, but his approach proves that Burnley's leaders do not believe in Broja.

At the age of 39, Vardy returns to England where he is expected to take the place of the main striker on the Burnley team.
