West Ham United under-18s duo Callum Marshall and Patrick Kelly are reportedly in line to both win call-ups for Northern Ireland’s senior national side.
Hammers forward Marshall and midfielder Kelly have both been integral players in Kevin Keen’s under-18s this season that won both the FA Youth Cup and Premier League South titles, narrowly missing out on qualifying for next season’s UEFA Youth League.
Reports from Sunday Life Sport have suggested that Marshall, who scored 20 goals for the under-18s at league and FA Youth Cup levels this season, will be named in Michael O’Neill’s Northern Ireland senior squad for their upcoming European Championship qualifying matches against Denmark and Kazakhstan.

However, Marshall will also be reportedly joined by club teammate and midfielder Kelly, with the Belfast Telegraph suggesting that ex-Coleraine midfielder Kelly will also be named in the squad for the qualification double header.
Both Marshall and Kelly were on a training camp last month with Northern Ireland’s under-21s which saw them miss the Hammers’ under-19s trip to India to compete in the Premier League Next Generation Cup, a tournament where West Ham finished third out of eight teams.
Having missed a chunk of the season through injury, Kelly has played 13 times in the under-18s Premier League this season, and started in five of West Ham’s six games on route to winning their first FA Youth Cup final in 24 years.
