Aston Villa defender Tyrone Mings will play for England next month.
Aston Villa central defender Tyrone Mings has taken to Twitter to express his delight at getting a call-up to the England squad.
Mings has been included in the England squad for their upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers against Bulgaria and Kosovo.
This is the first time that the 26-year-old has been called up to the Three Lions’ squad, and the defender is over the moon.
Well deserved
Mings has been superb for Villa, and his recognition by England manager Gareth Southgate is nothing more than what he deserves.
The defender joined the Villans on a permanent contract from Bournemouth in the summer transfer window for an initial fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £20 million.
The 26-year-old played for Villa on loan from the Cherries during the second half of last season and was a key figure in Dean Smith’s side getting promoted to the Premier League from the Championship via the playoffs.
According to WhoScored, Mings has made three appearances in the Premier League for Villa this season and made 18 appearances in the Championship for the Villans during the second half of the 2018-19 campaign.
