Newcastle star Dan Burn reveals the three shirts he has framed on his wall leaving fans confused

NEWCASTLE star Dan Burn has revealed the three football stars' shirts he has framed on his wall.

But fans were left baffled by the Geordie's collection.

Eddie Howe's men brushed French champions PSG aside with a comprehensive 4-1 victory at St James' Park on Wednesday evening.

Local boy Burn, 31, bagged the Toon's second goal of the night and produced an outstanding performance to keep Kylian Mbappe and Co quiet.

And following the match, he was asked if any of the players collected Mbappe's shirt.

Kieran Trippier's Mbappe "obsessed" son was the chosen one to get the French superstar's shirt.

: "I think a few of the lads kids definitely would've got a shirt.

"But I have not asked for a shirt anyway. I have got a canny collection.

"I think I’ve got Peter Crouch, Per Mertesacker and Wayne Routledge, they’re the only three ones I’ve got, got them framed on the wall!"

Fans quickly began trying to decipher the reasoning the eclectic choice of shirts to keep.

One theory was that most of Burn's choice of players have their skyscraper height in common with the 6ft 7in centre-back.

Crouch was known as one of the tallest strikers during his career standing at a mammoth 6ft 7in.
