"Getting an England call up while winning a title is an amazing feeling"- Dan Burn

Newcastle defender Dan Burn says receiving an English callup and lifting a trophy within days is ‘an amazing feeling’ and a ‘dream come true’.

Newcastle for the first time in 70 years secured their first domestic title at Wembley on Sunday at the expense of Liverpool who looked far from their best level on the day.

Dan Burn after his title celebrations joined the England camp on Monday, stating to the nation’s press that being afforded a call up after lifting a trophy is the perfect time to be alive

“Its been surreal. Winning the Cup with Newcastle is a dream come true. My first sort of England goal at 32 was something i wasn’t expecting, but its a very very amazing feeling to get your hands on a title and be here”

Dan Burn was adjudged man of the match in the Cup final against the Merseyside Reds after scoring the game’s opener and remaining crucial throughout the match for the Magpies.

It seems to be the perfect week for Dan Burn, whose story is one that encourages the need for consistency and hard work to be able to reap positive outcomes despite slow starts in professional careers.
