Crystal Palace midfielder Jesurun Rak-Sakyi has been called up to England’s Under-20 squad.

Matt Woosnam, Palace’s reporter for The Athletic, shared the news, which, as to be expected, had plenty of Eagles fans talking on social media.

Rak-Sakyi only signed his first professional deal at Selhurst Park back in April but has since been handed a first-team debut by new boss Patrick Vieira.

The 18-year-old came on against Chelsea last month for his maiden competitive appearance in Palace’s first-team and has now been called up by England Under-20 boss Andy Edwards.

Rak-Sakyi got the nod after Everton’s Anthony Gordon pulled out of the squad and he will now be hoping to feature against Romania at St George’s Park next week.

Palace fans react

Woosnam posted the news regarding Rak-Sakyi on Twitter on Wednesday lunchtime.

This is what these Palace supporters had to say in reply, with many delighted for the youngster and one describing it as ‘brilliant news’.
