West Ham ace Michail Antonio could feature for England this week.
West Ham United winger Michail Antonio is excited for his potential role for England in their international match with Malta this Saturday.
Antonio, 26, retained his place in the squad despite Sam Allardyce relinquishing his role as England boss – and having been the man who first handed him a call-up.

Antonio was part of England’s squad for the World Cup qualifier against Slovakia in September, but much to his disappointment was an unused substitute in the 1-0 win.
This game against Malta therefore provides a big opportunity for the winger to stake his claim, whether he starts, or comes off the bench.
Days later England have another World Cup qualifier against Slovenia, and Antonio will hope to have earned a big enough role to figure here too.
This season for West Ham he has been in superb form, scoring five goals in seven Premier League appearances despite his club struggling to win games.
