Burnley's son of a gun Joseph Bauress offered England chance

Burnley youngster Joseph Bauress has been handed the chance of England honours.

The Clarets' midfielder has been invited to attend a selection camp for next season's England Under-15 side.

The Liverpudlian – who has been in Burnley's Academy set-up since Foundation Phase ­– will attend a four-day camp at Loughborough University at the end of July.

Joseph, whose father Gary was a professional footballer with Tranmere Rovers, is again expected to play at an older age next season as part of the Clarets' U15/16 squad.

And as well as training in the evenings, he will also attend the Academy's day-release programme to gain extra coaching time.
