Tarkowski Is Clarets' First 'Player of the Restart'

James Tarkowski is the Clarets’ LoveBet Player of the Restart – Part 1.

Tarkowski topped a fans’ poll to land the prize for votes cast by supporters based on Burnley’s first five matches post-lockdown.

The central defender headed a shortlist, which also included striker Jay Rodriguez, goalkeeper Nick Pope and midfielder Ashley Westwood.

Tarkowski helped the Clarets bounce back from defeat at Manchester City to collect three wins and a draw in the period covered.

All three wins – against Watford, Crystal Palace and West Ham – came with the help of clean sheets as the Clarets produced outstanding defensive performances to help their push for a top-10 finish.
