Chelsea youngster Callum Hudson-Odoi was thrilled as he received a call-up to the senior England side for the international break.

The 18-year-old had been due to make his debut for the U21s against Poland and Germany, but after travelling to Bristol, he was quickly sent on his way to St George’s Park on Monday afternoon to link up with Gareth Southgate and his players.

As seen in the video below, the Blues starlet was delighted to be with the senior squad, and he’ll be hoping to be given a chance to show his worth in the Euro 2020 qualifiers against the Czech Republic and Montenegro over the coming week or so.
