Mings Could Get England U21s Call - Ipswich Town News
Scouts from the FA have reportedly been keeping tabs on Town left-back Tyrone Mings with a view to an U21 call-up in the near future.
According to the Daily Mail the FA are amongst those to have sent representatives to watch Mings in action in recent weeks with an U21 call likely to be on the horizon.
Premier League scouts were again out in force at Portman Road to catch Mings in action during Saturday’s 4-1 victory over Leeds. Last week, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger confirmed his interest in the defender.
Speaking prior to last month’s two England U21 friendlies against Portugal and France, Town manager Mick McCarthy said he wasn’t too disappointed to see the 21-year-old miss out from his own perspective but ultimately expected him to win a place in coach Gareth Southgate's plans.
"Let Ty have a rest because I think he’ll benefit from that and he’ll get in it,” he said. "I don’t doubt that at all because if there are any of them any better that are in that squad then I’d be interested to see them.”
The U21s are next in action against Germany in March, having qualified for next summer's European Championships in the Czech Republic.
