Shea Charles says earning first-team minutes for Manchester City is his “main target” after a stellar performance for Northern Ireland in their 2-0 Euro 2024 qualifier win over San Marino on Thursday.
Charles played the full 90 minutes on his third international appearance and was a standout performer. The 19-year-old is yet to make his senior City debut, having made the first-team matchday squad for the first time in the 1-1 Champions League draw away at RB Leipzig last month.
The midfielder has played 20 games in Premier League 2 this season, grabbing an assist in City’s 6-0 win over Arsenal. Charles, who has trained with the senior squad this season, says he is seeing out the season at City before assessing his next steps albeit longs for his Blues debut.
