Dan Burn Newcastle United story for kids football podcast England defender Wembley journey resilience never give up inspiration Premier League England

From released academy kid to Wembley hero, this episode of Football For Kids tells the incredible true story of Dan Burn. Born in Blyth, a Newcastle United supporter long before he was a player, Dan’s path was never the easy one. Released at eleven, working part time at Asda, battling injuries, travelling miles just to train, he kept going when most would have stopped.

This is a warm, inspiring football story for kids and families about belief, hard work, and staying ready. We follow Dan from grassroots football and non league pitches to the Premier League, lifting a major trophy at Wembley for his boyhood club, and finally earning an England call up at thirty two.

Perfect for young football fans, car journeys, bedtime listening and anyone who needs a reminder that progress is not always loud. A powerful lesson in resilience, patience and never giving up.
