International call-ups handed out

Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek have both been called up by England and the Czech Republic respectively.

The West Ham duo will both be involved in the next round of international fixtures after receiving call-ups for their countries.

Rice has emerged as a key player for England in recent months and has earned 27 caps for his country, playing a key role as his side reached the final of Euro 2020 in the summer.

Soucek, by comparison, has won 46 caps for his country, scoring eight goals in total.

England are set to face Switzerland and Ivory Coast in international friendlies this month, on March 26th and March 29th.

By comparison, the Czech Republic are set to face Sweden in a play-off for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, a must-win game for Soucek and his countrymen.

The winners will face Poland in the final play-off for a place in the Qatari tournament at the end of this year.
