" KENNETH ZOHORE CALLED UP FOR INTERNATIONAL MATCHES "

Wed Mar 08, 2017 4:02 pm

Kenneth Zohore has been called up by the Danish Under-21 National Team for their upcoming friendlies against Spain and England.

The call-up comes as further good news for the in-form forward, who has netted seven goals in his last eight Sky Bet Championship matches – earning a number of individual accolades in the process.

Zohore could add to his youth international caps in the two friendly fixtures, which see Denmark begin their preparations for the UEFA EURO U21 Group Stages this summer.

Denmark U21 first travel to the Estadio Nueva Condomina in Murcia to play Spain U21 on 23rd March, kicking off at 7:30pm.

They then play hosts to England U21 in Bionutria Park, Randers at 1:00pm on Monday 27th March.

Congratulations, big Ken!

That's what I was thinking. Are they aloud a certain amount of overage players?

not 100% on this but im sure i read somewhere that you had to qualify as an under 21 at start date of tournament.. the finals are this summer but Denmark played 10 qualifying games . is it possible he fell within the age limit prior to the qualifiers starting. thats my guess anyway.

Brilliant news for the boy.
Deserves all the credit going for his hard work turning us doubters around.
Another player we will need to worry about not getting injured away on international duty!

Confirming what people thought about the age qualification rules...
The age limit was reduced to 21 for the 1978 championship and it has remained so since. To be eligible for the campaign ending in 2017, players need to be born in or after 1994. Many can be actually 23 years old by the time the finals tournament takes place; however, when the qualification process began (2015) all players would have been 21 or under.

Big Ken's birthdate - 31 January 1994 (age 23 years)
