England announced their latest u18 squad on Monday, with the team planning a couple of friendly matches against Morocco later this month.

Arsenal goalkeeper Khari Ranson will be involved once again, having made his debut for the side in a friendly against France in March. But striker Andre Harriman-Annous has also been called up for the first time.

England write that this double header of friendlies will bring the 2024/25 campaign to a close, with this age group progressing to u19 fixtures in 2025/25. So this is a chance for Ranson and Harriman-Annous to ensure they’re part of that summer promotion.

Although he’s never been involved with England before, it’s not surprising Harriman-Annous has started to catch the eye now.

The 17-year-old has scored 17 goals and assisted three in all competitions this season, despite a huge variation in the opposition he’s faced.

Harriman-Annous has played for the u18s in the u18 Premier League, the FA Youth Cup, and the u18 PL Cup. He’s played for the u19s in the UEFA Youth League, and he’s played for the u21s in the Premier League 2 and the EFL Trophy. He’s scored in every single one of those competitions this season.

The England u18s will play two games over the next week or so, facing Morocco at the Moroccan national football centre. The first is on Sunday, May 25th at 18:00 BST, and the second is on Wednesday, May 28th at 18:00 BST.
