Dan Burn recalled by England after Marc Guehi withdraws with hip injury

Dan Burn has returned to England's squad after Marc Guehi withdrew through injury, with the Newcastle United defender joining Thomas Tuchel's players at Tottenham Hotspur's training ground on Monday. England confirmed the change in an official squad update and said Guehi would remain with Manchester City rather than take part in the international camp.

BBC Sport reported that Guehi's withdrawal was caused by a hip problem. The 26-year-old was replaced at half-time during City's defeat at Nottingham Forest on Saturday, with manager Enzo Maresca saying afterwards that the defender had asked to come off because of the injury. The BBC had reported on Sunday that Guehi was undergoing a scan to establish the severity of the ongoing issue.

The withdrawal removes a regular member of Tuchel's defence. According to the BBC, Guehi started all but one of England's matches at the World Cup and each of their four Nations League games in September and October. Stats Perform's report, published by SoccerNews, said his absence would end a sequence of appearances in 15 consecutive England matches.

Burn, 34, returns with 11 international caps. He was part of England's World Cup squad and made two appearances as a substitute at the tournament, the BBC reported. An ankle injury subsequently kept him out of the previous international break. Across his England career, seven of his appearances have come from the bench, and he has been involved in four clean sheets, according to Stats Perform.

The Newcastle defender had initially been left out of the selection for the November fixtures. Stats Perform reported that Jarrad Branthwaite, Ezri Konsa, Ben White and Jarell Quansah were chosen ahead of him. Guehi's withdrawal has now brought Burn back into the group before England's remaining Nations League matches against Croatia and Spain.

England host Croatia at Wembley on Thursday before travelling to Madrid to face world champions Spain. They are second in Nations League Group A3 after winning three of their opening four matches, with their only defeat coming against Spain. According to Stats Perform, a draw against Croatia would be enough to secure England's place in the quarter-finals.
