Ivorian forward David Datro Fofana, who joined Burnley on loan from Chelsea in January, scored his first goals in the English Premier League.

The 21-year-old Ivory Coast international netted twice against Fulham in the 23rd round. Burnley was trailing 0:2 after the first half, but Fofana's brace secured a resilient draw for Vincent Kompany's team.

Last year, during the winter transfer window, Chelsea acquired the forward from Molde for €12 million, and he made his debut for the Blues just a week later in an FA Cup match against Manchester City. However, he only appeared three times for the first team, totaling 70 minutes on the field.

In the summer, the Ivorian moved to Union Berlin on loan. He played seventeen matches for the German club, scoring two goals. In January, Chelsea recalled the player from loan and subsequently sent him to Burnley.
