Eberechi Eze feels injury nightmare gave him platform for England recognition

Eberechi Eze believes his injury nightmare two years ago gave him the platform for England recognition.

The Crystal Palace midfielder is eyeing a senior debut after being included in Gareth Southgate’s squad for the Euro 2024 qualifiers against Malta and North Macedonia.

The call came after Eze was named in England’s provisional Euro 2020 squad in May 2021 – only for a serious Achilles injury on the same day to wreck his dreams.
