Various England call ups for Spurs youngsters:

England announced some of their youth squads for the upcoming international break today, and unsurprisingly it included a fair few of our lads, including some new additions.

England under 18’s: Three of our youngsters were named in Steve Cooper’s under 18 side for their two friendlies against Brazil and South Africa next month. The two matches are in preparation for the upcoming under 17 World Cup, Cooper’s squad includes talented Spurs right back TJ Eyoma (17) who has been a mainstay in the under 23’s side this season, as well as rising Spurs star and midfielder Tashan Oakley-Boothe. There’s also a new name in Cooper’s squad, as 16 year old Spurs starlet Oliver Skipp makes the squad, the deep lying midfielder has enjoyed a sensational start to the season, already becoming a pivotal figure in Wayne Burnetts development side. Here’s a recent piece I wrote on this immensely talented player: https://superhotspur.com/2017/08/13/a-piece-on-oliver-skipps-remarkable-performance-against-sunderland-under-23s/

England under 19’s: Paul Simpson’s under 19 squad who have two friendly matches involving Poland and Germany next month, also included a trio of Spurs players. Tenacious centre half Japhet Tanganga who was a part of the England under 20 squad which won the Toulon tournament over the summer is included. In addition, talented left back Jaden Brown is also an inclusion. And there’s a first under 19 call up for Spurs winger Keanan Bennetts. Bennetts enjoyed an excellent pre season with our development squad, as well as an impressive start to the under 23 season, he is thoroughly deserving of his call up. Here’s a recent article I wrote on the pacy winger: https://superhotspur.com/2017/08/11/keanan-bennetts-one-to-watch/ Meanwhile, talented Spurs winger Samuel Shashoua is very unlucky to miss out on the squad, Shashoua enjoyed a phenomenal season last campaign.

England under 20’s: Talented Spurs forward Marcus Edwards is the sole Spurs inclusion in Keith Downing’s under 20 squad, for their upcoming matches against the Netherlands and Switzerland with the latter taking place in Switzerland. I thought I’d also mention that Spurs under 16’s defender Luis Binks who has represented Scotland in the past, was part of England’s under 17 side for their match with Italy earlier in the week.

England under 21’s: Senior squad members Josh Onomah and Kyle Walker-Peters both make the step up to Aidy Boothroyd’s under 21 squad for their friendly against the Netherlands and then their Euro under 21 qualifier against Latvia next Tuesday. The two Spurs starlets who were members of the victorious England under 20 squad over the summer have had really promising starts to their season, Onomah at his loan club Aston Villa, and Walker-Peters at the lilywhites where he recently made his first team debut. I would like to send my congratulations to all of our youngsters on their call ups!
