Dan Burn’s England call-up

Dan Burn has been added to England’s squad for the Nations League games against Croatia and Spain, replacing Marc Guehi, who pulled out with a hip injury. BBC Sport’s Sami Mokbel reports that Guehi came off at half-time in Manchester City’s defeat at Nottingham Forest and then had a scan. England host Croatia at Wembley on Thursday and travel to Madrid to play Spain on Sunday.

Burn is 34 and has 11 caps. He was in Thomas Tuchel’s World Cup squad but hasn’t played for England since missing the previous break with an ankle problem. Newcastle’s club site also lists goalkeeper Horníček in the Czech squad for their games against Spain and Croatia, and Thiaw’s German call-up is covered in our 11 November round-up.

Woltemade’s first Serie A goal

Woltemade scored his first Serie A goal for Juventus, his loan club, in a 2-2 draw at Fiorentina on Sunday afternoon. He drew Luciano Spalletti’s side level before half-time, after Mateo Pellegrino had given Fiorentina an early lead. Newcastle’s club site carried the goal in its loan watch update.

Beljo and Rudoni on Newcastle’s radar

Newcastle are keeping tabs on Dinamo Zagreb striker Dion Beljo, 24, along with Sunderland and Leeds, according to TEAMtalk. BBC Sport’s gossip column carried the report on 10 November, and it adds that Manchester United, Brighton, Tottenham and Everton are also watching him.

The same column, again citing TEAMtalk, says Newcastle and Leeds have been keeping a close eye on Coventry midfielder Jack Rudoni, 25. Rudoni is an English midfielder. For the Koni De Winter transfer talk, see our earlier post.

Newcastle not chasing Toney

Jaissle said of Joelinton: “Joelinton went out with an injury again, we need to make the final treatment plan for him and see how long he will be out.” There’s no return date yet.
