    Chelsea ace Cole Palmer has been called up to the England squad ahead of this month's Euro 2024 qualifiers month\u2019s Euro 2024 qualifiers versus Malta and North Macedonia following his heroics against Manchester City.<\/p>\n

    The 21-year-old, who netted a 95th-minute penalty to secure a well-earned point against his former club, missed out on Gareth Southgate's selection earlier this week, but has been parachuted in to cover injuries to the likes of James Maddison, Callum Wilson and Jude Bellingham.<\/p>\n

    Palmer has been given a late nod alongside former City team-mate Rico Lewis, who like Palmer has never been called up to England's senior team before. The duo have a decent chance of making their debuts too considering the calibre of opposition.<\/p>\n

    Palmer has been on fire since joining Chelsea from City in the summer. He's scored four times in 11 games and has arguably been the Blues' standout player of the season so far. He was on top form on Sunday too as Mauricio Pochettino's side came from behind three times to seal a 4-4 draw against Pep Guardiola's champions.<\/p>\n

    Lewis, meanwhile, has also been turning heads. The 18-year-old, who can play at full back and in central midfield, has made 10 appearances so far this season in all competitions, and earned stellar praise from Guardiola, who declared last month that he was one of the best players he has ever coached.<\/p>\n

    Who has a better chance of making their England debut this month – Palmer or Lewis? Let us know in the comments section below.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

    England host Malta on November 17 at Wembley before wrapping up their qualifying campaign against North Macedonia in Skopje on November 20. Southgate\u2019s side have already qualified for the tournament in Germany next summer following their 3-1 win over Italy in October.<\/p>\n
