Norwich youngster Rossi Jarvis has received his first international call-up for the England Under 18s.

Rossi, whose older brother Ryan is capped at Under 19 level, could figure in Monday's match with Slovenia at Bournemouth's Fitness First Stadium.

Academy director Ricky Martin, who has seen several of his charges offered professional terms in recent weeks, was delighted that Rossi has finally earned some recognition for his sterling work in the Canaries' second string..

"Rossi has been patient and waited for his opportunity," said Martin. "The English FA have been monitoring him in reserve games."
