West Ham attacker Bowen staying calm over England talk

West Ham attacker Jarrod Bowen is staying calm over England talk.

Bowen's excellent form and nine goals this term have catapulted him into the conversation for an England call-up.

The 25-year-old was a deadline-day signing from Hull two years ago and is finally flourishing in the top flight.

Speaking on behalf of Footy.com, Bowen said: “I just want to develop my game and be the best version of me.

“Last season was my first full season in the Premier League which was always going to be new to me.

“Then this season was about improving again and trying to do what I know I can do, what I've got in the locker so to speak, and being the best I can be.

“I've got a long way to go, and a lot more to come from my side, and I'm happy with how it's going right now.

“It's every boy's dream to play for their national team and it's one of my dreams. All I'm doing is playing my game to the ability that I know I can play at and I want to stick at.

“So if an England call-up happened I'd love it. It's a long time to the international break so my focus now is pushing this team into the top four and if a call-up happens I'd be delighted."
