Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi is on England's radar for their World Cup squad.

The Sun says such is the rapid progress of the Premier League's youngest regular centre-back that a spot on the plane to Qatar is not out of the question.

England coach Gareth Southgate likes his players to be clean-cut, dedicated professionals and Guehi, currently captain of the England Under-21s, is exactly that.

Guehi is also one of the many modern England players who have dual or more nationality, having been born in Ivorian economic capital Abidjan. He speaks French at home with his family.

No doubt the country of his birth would be keen for him to represent them too and, coincidentally, the Ivory Coast play England at Wembley next month.

That, coupled with Guehi's hot form, may be enough to earn a call-up soon as Southgate sees him as part of England's future.
