England U21 coach Carsley full of praise for Palace, Villa target Rowe

England U21 coach Lee Carsley admits he's pleased with Norwich City midfielder Jon Rowe.

Rowe is being tracked by several Premier League clubs, including Aston Villa and Crystal Palace.

Carsley said: “I like him a lot. He's a player who is in form along with [ex-Villa starlet] Jaden Philogene.

“They're full of confidence and it gives players that aren't involved in England teams a bit of hope because our recruitment and scouting is massive. There are no players not being watched. The fact that Jonathan Rowe has come through now in a different way is a testament to him and to Norwich.

“They've given him an opportunity to play and he's played well. I've been very impressed with him."
