Newcastle boss Eddie Howe says Anthony Gordon should be in with a chance of representing England in the coming months.
The 22-year-old winger took his time to show his best form since arriving from Everton in January.
However, Gordon has now become a regular starter for manager Howe on the left-hand side.
Speaking after thrashing Sheffield United 8-0, Howe said: I'm sure Gareth [Southgate] is aware of him and I'm sure he's been aware of him for a long time.
All Anthony can do is just keep performing like he has and keep his mentality as strong as it has been. He has been a joy to work with and he is reaping the benefits.
That is probably his best game for us, I thought he was very, very good. Very direct, I thought his goal was very good. He just looked a real threat, he has got so much ability, so much to give and he has got the attitude to go with it as well.
He has got desire to improve, I see it every day in training, it is great to see him rewarded with that."
