The Man City full-back set to play in England vs Finland with a big decision to make over his future
Rico Lewis is reportedly set to start England's Nations League clash with Finland at left-back - and he may not be the only Manchester City left-back on show at Wembley.
Lewis has started the season brilliantly at right-back, but may have to bide his time to move over to his preferred position for the Three Lions. Finland is a perfect opportunity to build on his debut earlier this year and continue his form from the start of the season.

Galvez made headlines last year for making his international debut before playing any senior football for City. He played at left-midfield against Sweden in January 2023, following it up with a cap against San Marino last season and an appearance off the bench against Scotland.

Maybe that has hampered his opportunities under Pep Guardiola, even with the ongoing
