Premier League fans travelling to Burnley this season have been treated to a giant mural of manager Sean Dyche on their way to Turf Moor.

But those who want to see the artwork produced by Paul Jones, known as Graffia, to mark the Clarets’ return to the Premier League, will not have long to do so. 

The house on which the mural has been painted will soon be torn down, but Jones remains philosophical over his art coming down in the process.

“I feel like the artwork captured a moment in time for the town,” said Jones, who added that Dyche has given his seal of approval.

“I met Sean a couple of weeks ago and he was positive about it. He didn’t really know how to take it but he’s a very modest man and I think he liked it.”
