"Harry Kane and England Teammates Leave Concert Early to Dodge Tuchel's World Cup Curfew"

HARRY KANE got further into the cowboy spirit by attending a country concert on Friday night.

Two days on from his two-goal heroics against in Dallas, the skipper went to a gig of Alabama star Ella Langley, whose smash hit is called ‘Choosin’ Texas.’

It follows Kane and his team-mates tucking into some tasty barbecue – with burnt ends being the local delicacy – as well as the captain watching a Kansas City Royals game.

Kane was joined by team-mate and training goalie , though only one of the trio dressed appropriately for the occasion.

Centre-back Burn, 34, revealed: “I like , so I had a cowboy hat on and cowboy boots, and luckily there’s no photos kicking about.

“I went and got some boots on Friday, I got kitted out. If you’re going to do it, do it properly.

“I had a good time, because Ella is sort of an amazing country artist, so it was nice that we get to do those things. And then on Saturday it’s focused back on .

“Steely and Harry came with us. I know Harry is a big country music fan. We’ve got a record player in the hotel and he did a captain’s pick of a lot of his country music.”

Among Kane’s playlist pics are country artists Morgan Wallen, Dylan Gossett, Zach Bryan, Luke Bryan, The Band Perry, Wyatt Flores, Kane Brown and Luke Combs.

Oklahoma artist Zach Bryan recently played at Kane’s old stomping ground The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with big fan and fellow England man James Maddison in attendance.

Thomas Tuchel’s squad had Friday off to spend with friends and family, before Kane, Steele and Burn went off to the music concert in Kansas City – the location of their training base.

Though the hat-trick of England players were forced to miss the last three songs due to their 11pm curfew.

Newcastle star Burn divulged: “I wouldn’t call it a night out. We’ll stop that straightaway! No, we got asked to go and watch Ella Langley.

“I was the only person that was suited and booted with cowboy hat and jeans the lot.

“The management group sorted us with hospitality tickets and Harry and Steeley got to meet Ella before the gig as well.

“I turned up a little bit late so I didn’t get that but it was good.

“We missed the last three songs because we had to be back for curfew which I was a bit gutted about because they were her best three ones.

“But it’s nice doing these things and even coming in today I had to remember I’m here to play football and not just seeing the baseball and watching country music!”

Burn revealed the players have been entertaining themselves in their down-time with Traitors-esque game Wolf, while backgammon has been a big hit on this camp.

But obviously the full focus on performances on the pitch, with Kane no doubt hoping to follow up his brace against Croatia with more goals versus Ghana in Boston on Tuesday.

The unsung hero of the win over and Co was , who showed just why are prepared to break the £100million barrier for his services.

No player made more defensive contributions in the game than the Nottingham Forest star, whom Newcastle were forced to sell in 2024 because of profit and sustainability rules.

The Geordie also teed up for the all-important third England goal of the game.

Anderson has been through a tough time personally in the last few months, having sadly lost his mum Helen in April.

Former Toon team-mate Burn said: “Nothing really seems to faze Elliot, from what I’ve seen from him coming through as a kid, when he came back off loan at Bristol Rovers and trained for Newcastle to now starting in the World Cup.

“Never changes a character, always wanting the ball. I think players with that intensity are what the manager loves.

“Obviously he’s had a tough time in his personal life at the moment. So I was really happy that he got off to a good start, and think he’s shown the type of player he is now.

“I don’t think he wanted to leave Newcastle. I know that’s been spoken about, but would he be in the position that he’s in now if he, if he’d be in there?

“I’m really happy for him and his family.”

Burn is well aware he is here to play a supporting role and may not even get a minute of action at what is likely to be his one and only World Cup.

But if England are chasing a game with ten minus to go, there is a chance Tuchel could turn to the 6ft7ins defender because of his threat from set-pieces.

Burn has a track record of scoring big goals too, having netted the opener in Newcastle’s League Cup final triumph against Liverpool in 2025.

The powerhouse defender added: “I’ve been lucky that in some of the finals that I’ve played I’ve been able to score some big goals which I feel leads into confidence, knowing that I f that’s what I’m asked to do I have the ability and confidence to do that.”

“I don’t get many goals but I feel the goals that I do get seem to be important and I’d love for it to be World Cup final, last minute winner, but we’ll have to wait and see.”
