West Ham players will travel the second longest amount of miles during this international break according to a table compiled by the Daily Mirror

Only Spurs will travel further amassing 63,782 miles compared to the Hammers 44,468

Luckily West Ham next opponents Everton come in third place with 42,242 meaning their players will have the same disadvantage when it comes to any fatigue from jet lag.

Ten West Ham players have been called up for full international duty during the March break.

Declan Rice played for England for the first time in the UEFA Euro 2020 qualification campaign with Group A fixtures with Czech Republic and Montenegro. Marko Arnautovic and Lukasz Fabianski go head-to-head as Austria host Poland in Group G, while Josh Cullen is in the Republic of Ireland squad for the first time for Group D ties with Gibraltar and Georgia.

In Africa, Arthur Masuaku’s DR Congo could still secure qualification for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations while Pedro Obiang’s Equatorial Guinea played Sudan;

The South American duo of Felipe Anderson (Brazil) and Fabian Balbuena (Paraguay), as well as Mexico’s Chicharito, all have friendly internationals in the United States, while Manuel Lanzini celebrates his return to the Argentina squad with friendlies with Venezuela in Spain and the Czech Republic in Prague.
