Crystal Palace midfielder Eberechi Eze earned his first senior call-up for England as coach Gareth Southgate named his squad for next month’s Euro 2024 qualifiers on Wednesday.

Eze, 24, has chosen his path in International football as the Crystal Palace midfielder will now play for England’s senior football team and will not be able to represent the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

The midfielder has been in great form for Palace, scoring six goals in his last eight games and Southgate said he would have been in his previous squad but for an injury setback.

Eze was the only uncapped player in the 25-man selection for the two games in Group C, away to Malta and at home to North Macedonia.

England are top of Group C after winning away in Italy and then at home to Ukraine.

England Squad for Euro 20234 qualifiers.

Squad: Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale, Sam Johnstone. Trent Alexander-Arnold, Lewis Dunk, Marc Guehi, Harry Maguire, Tyrone Mings, Luke Shaw, John Stones, Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker. Jude Bellingham, Eberechi Eze, Conor Gallagher, Jordan Henderson, James Maddison, Kalvin Phillips, Declan Rice. Phil Foden, Jack Grealish, Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka, Callum Wilson.
