After a stumbling start, Tottenham’s record-signing Dominic Solanke has returned to the scoresheet in recent games.
The Englishman now has three goals and an assist from his first six Spurs appearances. And now, he has been rewarded for his good performances with an international call-up.
Dominic Solanke set for return to England national team after seven years
As confirmed by Daily Mail, Tottenham forward Dominic Solanke has earned a call-up for the England national team for the upcoming international break.
The call-up brings to an end a seven-year hiatus since the last time Solanke was called to the national team, during which he earned his one and only England cap to date during an international friendly against Brazil.
Interim England manager Lee Carsley is trying out new players in the post-Gareth Southgate era as he makes a case for himself for the permanent manager role.
England will continue their UEFA Nations League campaign in the upcoming international break with games against Greece and Finland.
A spot there for the taking
Ivan Toney’s move to Saudi Arabia has taken him out of the national team picture, for now.
This leaves the room open for another forward who can play as a second fiddle to Harry Kane, and who better to do so than the player doing exactly that in club football?
Solanke has more than earned his call-up. There is a slot in the team for the taking under a new manager who, if things go well, could well be handed the role permanently.
