Concerns were first raised after Burn joined up with the England camp on Monday with a heavily-banged left hand.

But the defender continued to train with the England squad during the week before being an unused substitute for the 3-0 win over Wales at Wembley Stadium on Thursday night.

Burn will be hoping to add to his three England caps in Tuesday's World Cup qualifier in Latvia, and said: “I actually broke my hand, I don't even know how I did it, I think I went to grab someone and then I felt a crack.

"It was early in the second half so I went for the scan and I have seen a specialist.

"I've been told I can play with it. I am ready for Latvia, I am ready for Newcastle and I'd have been ready to play tonight.”
