Fuchs delighted for England's young Leicester trio

Leicester City defender Christian Fuchs is happy to see England recognition for his teammates.

Youngsters Ben Chilwell, who made his England debut this week, and Demarai Gray were bumped up from the Under 21s. Harry Maguire is now an established part of the side.

And Fuchs told the Daily Mail: "It's a credit to Leicester to always have talent that are making the international team.

"I'm not surprised. They're doing a good job, they're playing in the Premier League. When you keep working hard, this is the result.

"We're doing well keeping all of these talents, also with the contract extension of Harry Maguire. They are building a new training facility too. A top 10 placement is realistic, but the Premier League is very competitive."
