Six Clarets represented their native countries across Europe in June

Nathan Collins, Nick Pope, Connor Roberts, Wayne Hennessey, Wout Weghorst and Bailey Peacock-Farrell have all been in action over the past couple of weeks on international duty.

Collins started all four of Ireland's UEFA Nations League fixtures, also playing 90 minutes in all of the matches, coming up against Armenia, Scotland and Ukraine twice.

The 21-year-old defender gave Stephen Kenny's side the lead in spectacular fashion on Tuesday night against Ukraine, before Dovbyk equalised for the hosts after the break.

Nick Pope was an unused substitute for Gareth Southgate's England side across the break, as the Three Lions suffered defeat to Hungary twice and draws with Germany and Italy.

Welsh duo Roberts and Hennessey had five games scheduled over June, with the Burnley pair featuring in four of them, coming up against Belgium, Poland, Ukraine and Netherlands twice.

Both started the crucial 2022 World Cup Qualifier against Ukraine in Cardiff, where the Dragons ran out 1-0 winners, with Roberts grabbing an assist in the 2-1 defeat to the Netherlands the following week.

Striker Wout Weghorst was apart of Louis Van Gaal's Holland side, with the forward only starting once out of the four matches, where the 29-year-old headed home a dramatic stoppage time winner against Wales in the UEFA Nations League.

Weghorst was an unused substitute against Belgium and in the second meeting with Wales in Rotterdam, with just playing the last 13 minutes against Poland.
