Eddie Howe, Newcastle's boss, celebrates Dan Burn's unexpected inclusion in the England squad, calling it one of football's great stories. Howe views Burn as deserving and emphasizes his inspiring journey through the leagues. The defender's commitment and professionalism stand out, making him a vital part of Newcastle's squad as they prepare for the EFL Cup final against Liverpool. Howe adds that while this recognition is important, Burn remains focused on training and the upcoming match, indicating that success is a team effort.
Yeah, incredible moment for Dan - and I have to say there's no one more deserving in my opinion. Such an inspiring guy and a talented player, it is a great football story. Dan has had to do it the hard way coming through the leagues. He is the model professional; he is so committed to what he does. His character is so stable and so level, I am so pleased for him on a personal level.
I think it's a great story really, one of the great stories, one of the great comebacks. A dedicated professional, a leader, a real man.
This is just a great moment for Dan, and of course for Newcastle. But the cup final is the priority, so no time for celebration yet.
