England, Dan Burn, Marc Guéhi and Thomas Tuchel
9 November 2026
Newcastle defender Dan Burn has been called into England’s Nations League squad after Manchester City’s Marc Guéhi withdrew with a hip injury. Guéhi will miss the upcoming matches against Croatia and Spain.
Guéhi requested to be substituted at half-time during City’s defeat to Nottingham Forest on Saturday. Subsequent medical assessments ruled him out of international duty. Burn, who has 11 England caps, returns after missing October’s squad because of an ankle problem. The 34-year-old joins Tuchel’s squad ahead of Thursday’s home fixture against Croatia.
Why It Matters
England lose a regular starting defender before two important Nations League matches, giving Burn another opportunity in the national squad.
