Pope back in England squad
Nick Pope has won his place back in the Burnley team just over a year since suffering a serious injury in the Europa League qualifier at Aberdeen and, after three Premier League games, has won his place back in the England squad.
The real disappointment is that he is the only Burnley player to be called up but Pope will be alongside former Burnley players Tom Heaton, Kieran Trippier and Michael Keane for two European qualifiers against Bulgaria at Wembley on Saturday 7th September and then three days later against Kosovo at Southampton.
