Chelsea defender Levi Colwill is ready to play for England's Under 21s European Championship team this week.

The centre back, who spent the season on loan at Brighton, has been with England's senior squad.

While Colwill is determined to become an England regular in the near future, the youngster is also prepared to do his part for the U21s.

“He had a good experience with them," manager Lee Carsley said.

“He was tired when he got here. The journey is tough.

“He had a recovery session but has trained well ever since so he's in a good position. I expect him and Taylor [Harwood-Bellis], along with the other center halves, to have a good competition.

“What I've noticed about Levi, and the others, is that they're motivated and committed to being here. And not just being here but doing well. Hopefully we can get off to a good start."
