Gareth Southgate has described Eddie Nketiah as a player with a “a lot of pedigree” after naming the Arsenal striker in the England seniors squad for the first time.
The 24-year-old was a heavily experienced England youth international, and overtook Alan Shearer’s long-held record to become the England Under-21s’ highest-ever goalscorer, last playing at that level in 2021 and finishing with 16 goals in 17 caps.
