An update on how the Clarets on international duty have fared in the November fixtures

Seven Clarets featured for their respective nations around the globe over the past week in the November international schedule.

Hannibal (Tunisia)

The midfielder featured as a second-half substitute in Tunisia's 3-2 win over Madagascar last Thursday, before not featuring in the 1-0 defeat to Gambia on Monday.

November's results saw Tunisia finish 2nd in Group A of their respective Africa Cup of Nations Qualifying Group, with Hannibal and his teammates qualifying for AFCON 2025.

Connor Roberts (Wales)

Roberts started in Wales' 0-0 draw with Turkey on Saturday night, as Craig Bellamy's side extended their unbeaten run to five matches and secured a third clean sheet since the September international break.

The full-back was then a late substitute in the Dragons' second November fixture, as Wales beat Iceland 4-1 in Cardiff on Tuesday night.

Jeremy Sarmiento (Ecuador)

The winger was a second-half substitute in Ecuador's 4-0 win over Bolivia last weekend, as 'La Tri' cruised to a 4-0 victory in Guayaquil.

Sarmiento wasn't involved in the second game of the international break, as Ecuador beat Colombia 1-0 away from home which saw Sebastian Beccacece's side move to 3rd place in the CONMEBOL qualifying group.

James Trafford (England)

Trafford was initially called up to the U21s squad, before Aaron Ramsdale's withdrawal saw the goalkeeper drafted into Lee Carsley's Three Lions side.

The shot-stopper was an unused substitute in both of England's victories over Greece and Spain, but the 21-year-old will have gained more valuable experience being amongst the Euro 2024 finalists.

Bashir Humphreys (England U21s)

The defender started in both of England's friendly fixtures against Spain and the Netherlands. Humphrey's' impressive display saw him awarded the 'Player of the Match' for the Three Lions.

Following a goalless draw and clean sheet in Spain, Ben Futcher's side then drew 1-1 with the Netherlands on Monday night.

Andreas Hountondji (Benin)

The striker was a substitute in Benin's 1-1 draw with Nigeria on Thursday night, before featuring off the bench on Monday night as a substitute in the goalless draw with Libya.

November's results saw Benin qualify for next year's Africa Cup of Nations, which begin at the end of 2025.

Josh Cullen (Ireland)

Cullen started in both of Ireland's November fixtures, first in the 1-0 win over Finland in Dublin, before playing 76 minutes in the 5-0 defeat to England at Wembley on Sunday evening.
