March international fixtures for our players

The first international break of 2024 is upon us, with many of our players preparing for action with their respective countries.

It's a key fortnight for Ben Davies, Brennan Johnson and on-loan Joe Rodon as Wales try to navigate the Euro 2024 qualification play-offs for a chance to compete in this summer's tournament finals, while a number of our other players have friendly matches on the agenda.

Pedro Porro has been recalled to the Spain squad for the first time since March, 2023 - he could find himself up against Richarlison when Spain host Brazil. James Maddison could also face Richarlison during this window, with England set to host Brazil at Wembley.

On the youth international stage, there are first-ever England call-ups for Leo Black (Under-18s) and Tyrese Hall (Under-19s). Tyrese joins Jamie Donley, Alfie Dorrington, Will Lankshear and George Abbott - the latter having been called up from standby - in the Under-19s ranks.

Their Academy colleague, Yusuf Akhamrich, earned his international debut for Morocco Under-20s last month, during a camp outside of the regular international window.
