Howe: Cork can come back

31 March 2011 17:30
Burnley boss Eddie Howe is confident that Jack Cork can return to play a part in the club's promotion push. The on-loan Chelsea midfielder has returned to Stamford Bridge for medical tests after being taken ill on England international duty in Preston on Monday night. Cork spent the night in hospital after suffering heart palpitations during the 2-1 defeat against Iceland at Deepdale. Cork is thought to be suffering from a virus, but Howe said: "We haven't heard anything official yet from Chelsea so we are waiting on that one but we are confident it's nothing serious and hopefully we will have Jack back with us very soon. "I think he is feeling a lot better and hopefully they are all positive signs."
