    Adam Webster has been called up to the England under-17 squad for a friendly tournament in Portugal.

    It is the first time the Chichester-born 17-year-old defender – who made his first-team debut in Saturday’s Championship defeat to West Ham – has been selected by the Three Lions.

    Pompey’s academy manager Andy Awford said: “It’s been a great week for Adam and he deserves this latest recognition. We’re really pleased for him.

    “It will be a huge benefit for him – just as it has been for Sam Magri in the past. Playing international matches against good quality players can only help him improve.”

    England face Portugal (February 2), Holland (February 4) and France (February 6) in the Algarve Tournament.

    He was the only PFC youngster named in the England squad.

    No sign of Sam Magri.
