​Crystal Palace fullback Wan-Bissaka thankful for Townsend

Crystal Palace fullback Aaron Wan-Bissaka is thankful for the advice he received from Andros Townsend.

The youngster is hoping that he will get a call up to the England squad for their two Euro 2020 qualifiers this month.

His name is one surprise that would liven up the squad, as the 21-year-old has impressed at right back all season. And he is thankful for his partnership and friendship with Townsend at Crystal Palace.

"He's helped me from the start," Wan-Bissaka said to football.london.

"Whether I make a mistake or not he's always keeping my head up, encouraging me to carry on and just play my game."
