Tottenham midfielder Oliver Skipp admits he's eyeing an England breakthrough.
Skipp is not getting carried away with his impressive start to the season, but hopes to have caught the eye of Gareth Southgate.
The England manager was at Molineux to see Spurs beat Wolves 1-0 and Skipp, playing in a midfield three with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Dele Alli, was an important part of a gritty and resolute performance.
“I'm not getting carried away. I've only played two games this season," he said.
“But as a player it's a dream to represent your country, especially at the moment after seeing how they did at the Euros.
“So it's always something I'm pushing for but there's no rush on my behalf. All I can do is keep playing and performing and that takes care of itself really. But there's no rush on my side.
“I had a good season last season so I came back with the intention of building on it this season and luckily I've been given the opportunity to start the first two games.
“I'm always really grateful for those opportunities and I need to make sure I give everything when I do get those opportunities. I'm really happy with how it's gone so far."
