Taylor’s maiden top flight appearance came five months after his move from Leeds United to Burnley.
Charlie Taylor made his long-awaited Premier League debut on Tuesday, five months after his move from Leeds United to Burnley.
The left-back profited from an injury to Stephen Ward to play the final 49 minutes of Burnley’s 1-0 home win against Stoke City.
