Burn opened the scoring for the Magpies in their EFL Cup final win over Liverpool and admits that he is already setting his sights on next year's World Cup squad.

"I've waited a long time for this opportunity and I didn't want to spoil it," said Burn.

"He (Tuchel) said I've been playing well for a long time. I'm not just coming in to be a cheerleader - I want to play.

"You need to be given those opportunities. Now I want to make the most of it and get on the pitch as much as possible."

He added:  "I'm trying to take it camp by camp and make a big impression as I can and try make the next camp.

"Every little kid's dream is to play in a World Cup. To know I have got that opportunity, if I take it, is special."

The Three Lions host Albania and Latvia in their latest round of qualifiers for the tournament in North America next summer.
