Reports in Denmark suggest AC Horsens are keen on securing a loan deal for Burnley's Besart Berisha.

Ekstra Bladet suggests the Danish top-flight strugglers are interested in taking the striker on a short-term contract.

The Albania international is currently on loan at Rosenborg and has impressed during his time with the Norwegian giants.

The former Hamburg man is yet to feature in a competitive fixture for the Clarets, but has struggled with injury since joining the Championship club in 2007.

A cruciate knee ligament problem ruled him out of the entire 2007/08 campaign and Owen Coyle is keen for the 23-year-old to rebuild his fitness before handing him an opportunity in England.

Berisha has enjoyed two successful loan spells in the past, making a positive impression at Aalborg and Horsens during his time with Hamburg.

Whether he will want to join a side currently sitting rock-bottom of the Danish top-flight remains to be seen, but he is unlikely to be handed too many games should he return to Turf Moor once his deal with Rosenborg comes to an end.
