Cole Palmer, Ezri Konsa and Rico Lewis land first England call-ups for Euro 2024 qualifiers vs Malta and North Macedonia
THREE uncapped Premier League stars have landed their first England call-ups.
Gareth Southgate was in need of reinforcements after suffering injuries to his England squad.
The trio will join up with the Three Lions for the Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia.
Konsa, 26, has never played for England before despite being a regular for the Villans and is expected to be one player to join up.
Konsa replaces Lewis Dunk.
Dunk picked up a knock in Brighton's tie against Ajax and missed the game against Sheffield United on the weekend.
Two players that were involved in the epic 4-4 clash at Stamford Bridge have also been called up.
Cole Palmer and Rico Lewis have also had their first ever call-ups to the senior national side.
Palmer has impressed since taking a leading role at Chelsea following his summer switch from Man City.
He progressed even further against his former side as he was a constant threat at Stamford Bridge before scoring the equalising penalty in injury time.
