England coach Gareth Southgate has explained calling up Crystal Palace midfielder Ebe Eze.
Eze is in England's squad for the first time for their Euro qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia.
Southgate explained: "We've liked him for a long time. He was very unfortunate just before the Euros. We were going to call him into a prep camp and he got an injury.
"He has finished the season very strongly, he can play in a couple of positions across that front line.
"He has high quality and bursts of speed to go past players with those dribbling skills."
