Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard is happy hearing Jacob Ramsey is on England coach Gareth Southgate's radar.

Southgate says he is watching Ramsey after announcing his latest squad yesterday.

Gerrard said: “Listening to what Gareth Southgate said, JJ (Jacob Ramsey) was certainly very close. He's got eyes on him and he's watching him very closely, that should be exciting for JJ.

“There are still games left this season and he's very young, so there's time to impress all the England staff. I believe it will only be a matter of time because that's the type of talent we're talking about.

“He's named a really exciting England squad with a good mix of experience and up-and-coming young talent. What he's done is show the younger players that if they perform well in the league they'll get an opportunity. That's very exciting for Jacob and our other young players.

“In terms of Ollie Watkins, Danny Ings and other people who haven't made the squad, the only way to get back in is to play well at club level, score goals consistently and perform well enough so that when the next squad's named, you might force your way back in."
