There is clearly a lot of communication behind the scenes between clubs and international FAs - e.g. Arsenal's Ben White's decision not to be available before Southgate named his squad. Also, the medical teams are sure to share information about match fitness issues.
I assume these conversations are particularly in-depth where a player is eligible for more than one country - e.g. Kamara. My gut feel is that it is Kamara who will be called up by England to either the U20s or U21s squad. After all, he's had a much better season than Scarlett did last year and Azeez the year before! Good luck to the lad.
Shagger Azeez is at Atletico Baleares now. I remember Arsenal fans blaming us for not getting the most out of him. Since then he's made 10 appearances for Ibiza which must have felt like heaven for a horizontal dancing enthusiast like him. He then made two appearances for Wigan, a place with the kind of females that must have tested even his appetites for the old in/out.
