Targeting international break return
Burn (ankle) is expected to be sidelined until the September/October international break, according to Keith Downie of Sky Sports.
Analysis: Burn is dealing with a minor ankle injury that is expected to keep him out for four to five matches. The defender will miss the upcoming fixtures but is targeting a return around the September/October international break. Burn's absence remains significant given his ability to operate at both center-back and left-back, with Malick Thiaw and Sven Botman expected to see increased opportunities while he recovers.
Ruled out for opener, faces weeks out
Burn is set to miss Sunday's opener against Liverpool and could be sidelined for a couple of weeks after rolling his ankle in training, according to Jordan Cronin.
Analysis: Burn is currently in a protective boot after suffering the injury this week, an early setback for the Newcastle captain just as the new season begins. It's a real blow for the club given his importance, as he's capable of playing both at center back and left back. Malick Thiaw and Sven Botman are expected to start together in central defense during his absence.
