Walle Egeli Set to Add to Norway U21s Caps - Ipswich Town News

New Blues signing Sindre Walle Egeli looks set to add to his Norway U21s caps when his side faces Denmark away in Vejle this evening (KO 5pm).

The 19-year-old forward, who joined Town from Danish side FC Nordsjaelland at the end of last week for a Championship record fee of £17.5 million, has previously won six U21s caps, scoring two goals.

Walle Egeli has also won one senior cap, as a sub in a Nations League tie in Kazakhstan last year, having previously played at U15, U16, U17, U18 and U19 levels.

The Norwegian youngsters also play a European Championship qualifier at home to Slovenia on Tuesday.

Elsewhere, first-year scholar Jayden Adetiba’s UAE U18s were beaten 4-0 by Poland at a friendly tournament in Croatia yesterday. The UAE youngsters face Italy on Saturday and Ukraine on Tuesday.
