Burnley defender Michael Keane: We're all supporting Will

Burnley defender Michael Keane is confident brother Will will fully recover from his knee injury.

Striker Will suffered that playing for Hull against Southampton earlier this month at around the same time as defender Michael was being called up into England's World Cup squad.

Michael told the Sunday Express: "Obviously the whole family is giving Will the support he needs, but at the same time they are willing me to be on the pitch for England.

"He was the first person to text me and wish me well when I was in the squad, and I'm gutted for him. But he will bounce back, I'm sure of that."
