Burnley named Sean Dyche on their teamsheet for today’s defeat at Tottenham.
Instead of naming new caretaker boss Mike Jackson as their manager, the Clarets put down Dyche’s name instead, says The Sun.
Last month, Dyche was sacked amid the club’s relegation battle.
He had been in charge of Burnley since 2012, leading them to two Premier League promotions.
He also famously carried the club to Europa League football in 2018.
Jackson has since been trusted with the role until the end of the season, with captain Ben Mee as his assistant.
