Eberechi Eze’s true talent ‘still yet to explode’ as England debut beckons
E berechi Eze has never been slow to make an impression. Coaching staff at QPR recall the warm and smiley 18-year-old street footballer who honed his skills in the cages of south London turning up for a week-long trial at Lilleshall in 2016. The following year, while on loan at Wycombe, he had teammates giggling on the pitch so audacious was some of his body of work. Then there is the 20-second hat-trick he scored on his first day of training at Crystal Palace two years ago. It is fair to say the smile on his face has not diminished this week, with Eze primed to make his England debut in Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta on Friday or on Monday against North Macedonia.
