Premier League side Chelsea have had four of their youngsters named in the England Under-19 squad for their clashes against Slovakia and the Czech Republic (via The FA).
The four players are Dujon Sterling, Trevoh Chalobah, Reece James and Mason Mount.
The youngsters are preparing for their European Under-19 Championship qualifiers, which are set to commence in November this year.
England will face the Czechs on Friday 6 October and will then head across the border into Slovakia for a second match on Monday 9 October.
The Blues have been praised for the talent that is coming through the ranks at Stamford Bridge and this is yet another example of the home-grown quality that the London club possess.
The Blues also had an impressive five players selected for the England Under-17 squad.
Chelsea are well known for sending their young players out on loan to gain valuable game time, but have also been criticised for not promoting majority of their youngsters into the first team squad.
England Under-19 smashed seven past Poland at St. George’s Park to kick-start their international season in style at the beginning of September and will be hoping to take that form into their upcoming fixtures.
