Newcastle United and England defender Dan Burn has been hailed as a 'legend' after helping a motorist in need.

Multiple photos and videos went viral over the weekend after Burn was seen helping to push a stranger's broken-down car safely off a roundabout.

It is understood that the incident took place on the Moor Farm roundabout in Cramlington, around 10 miles from Newcastle's St James' Park stadium.

One video, taken from inside a nearby vehicle, showed Burn, dressed in a tee-shirt and shorts, really putting his back into it as he assisted two other people in pushing the troubled car.
