Quansah proud of call ups but now wants cap

JARELL Quansah feels pride at having been called into five camps by three different England managers rather than frustration at the continued wait to make his senior debut.

- 

Part of Gareth Southgate’s provisional Euro 2024 squad, the talented 22-year-old was then selected by interim boss Lee Carsley and has played a part in every get-together under Thomas Tuchel bar one.

Quansah missed the summer meetup as he was instead helping England win the Under-21 European Championship, which he hopes to follow up with his senior debut in October's doubleheader.

Asked if it is a strange feeling waiting for his debut while feeling comfortable in the environment, the Bayer Leverkusen defender said: “Not a strange feeling. I wouldn’t say (that). Really delighted to be here. It’s a huge, huge honour to get called up and I'm thankful to the manager for that as well.

“But it's always about learning off the senior players, the players who have got more and more caps than I do.
