Ex-Town left-back Aaron Cresswell made his England debut as a 79th minute sub as Gareth Southgate’s side drew 2-2 with Spain in this evening's friendly at Wembley.
Adam Lallana netted an eighth minute penalty for England, then Jamie Vardy made it 2-0 four minutes after the break, but Iago Aspas pulled one back on 89 and Isco completed the Spanish comeback five minutes into injury time.
Cresswell, 26, was with Town between 2011 and 2014, making 138 starts and scoring seven goals before moving on to West Ham for an initial £3.75 million.
That fee could ultimately rise to £7 million but with no clause relating to international appearances, which in any case usually only refer to competitive games.
All the top-ups are based on the former Tranmere defender’s Hammers appearances, the Blues having already received a substantial further sum with several of those milestones having been passed.
