Leeds United fans and Marcelo Bielsa will have a nervous eye on England's under-21s

It's been announced Eddie Nketiah has made England's under-21 squad for their upcoming Euro 2021 qualifiers.

The Arsenal striker, on loan at Leeds United, has made a brilliant start to his Whites career, scoring in three of his four appearances so far.

The 20-year-old, who scored in the Premier League for his parent club last season, has already become a fan-favourite at Elland Road, despite the fact he's yet to be given a start in the Championship.

Nketiah scored in his competitive debut, United's 3-0 win over Salford City, before coming off the bench to score the match-winner in United's 1-0 win over Brentford.

He's already represented England at under-18, under-19 and under-20 levels and he's set to win his fourth cap for the under-21s in the upcoming matches against Turkey and Kosovo.

He scored two goals for the under-21s in the semi-final of the 2018 Toulon tournament against Scotland, a tournament Aidy Boothroyd's men went on to win.

Other forwards in the club include Liverpool's Rhian Brewster, Manchester United's Mason Greenwood and Arsenal's Reiss Nelson.
