The Icelandic international was absent from Burnley’s squad on Saturday in their 2-0 loss to Newcastle United after starting their last three matches.
Although Vincent Kompany did not reveal the injury or its extent, he confirmed that it occurred in the match against Manchester United last week, when he was sent off early in the first half.
“He stopped the match against Man Utd and he is struggling with that problem,” Kompany confirmed after Saturday’s defeat at St James’ Park. On a more positive note, Lyle Foster – a player Burnley has missed severely over the past fortnight – has now served his three-match suspension and is available for Tuesday night’s big game against Luton Town.
It comes after the striker received a red card for violent behavior in the recent Championship clash with Nottingham Forest.
However, for Gudmundsson, he will join Hjalmar Ekdal, Manuel Benson, Nathan Redmond and Michael Obafemi on the sidelines.
