Academy’s September internationals – All You Need to Know

A handful of talent from the Academy of Football have received call-ups to represent their countries in varying age groups across the September international window.

With our U21s winning their last four matches and our U18s unbeaten in their last two fixtures, the young Hammers head into the break with plenty of confidence.

Read on for our preview...
 

Who has been called up? 

Michael Forbes, Callum Marshall and Patrick Kelly will be in action for Northern Ireland U21s, who take on Luxembourg and Ukraine in UEFA U21 Euro Qualifiers.

Goalkeeper Krisztian Hegyi, on loan at Stevenage, is set for UEFA U21 Euro Qualifier action for Hungary U21s against Kazakhstan and Malta, while Sean Moore could feature for the Republic of Ireland U19s in two friendlies against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Further down the ages, goalkeeper Finlay Herrick will represent England U18s.

Part of the 23-player squad, Herrick will contest the Tournoi International in Limoges this month, with three games scheduled in France, against the host nation, Portugal and Japan.

Elsewhere, Josh Briggs has been called up for Northern Ireland U19s' friendly against Italy, while Emeka Adiele and Jethro Medine will be involved with England U17s, who will be in Pinatar this month as they prepare for their UEFA U17 Euro 2024 campaign.

The Young Lions, under head coach Greg Lincoln, will head to Spain for games against Portugal, Morocco and the host nation.
