One of football's great late bloomers, Dan Burn worked at a supermarket while playing non-league before turning professional with Darlington and Blyth Spartans. He climbed the divisions through Fulham, Wigan and Brighton before a 2022 move to boyhood club Newcastle United, where the 201cm defender helped end the club's long trophy drought by winning the 2025 League Cup. He made his England debut at 32 and started six of seven matches at Euro 2024, bringing aerial dominance and a remarkable underdog story to the squad.
- At 201cm, one of the tallest outfield players in England history
- Once stacked supermarket shelves while playing non-league football
- Made his England debut aged 32
