On the club site, he's not shown as a U-21 or U-18 team member. I suppose it doesn't really matter, yet.
Aside from the club, it appears he's played for England U-16, but has also played for Poland's National team. He hasn't declared.
Here's a quick interview with him as part of an England Youth Instagram series.
1️⃣. Who is your biggest inspiration in football? -- my dad @theprofessornsangou because he is the reason I am where I am today -- not because of the club but because of long hard hours of private training with him physically and physiologically.
2️⃣. What club do you support? -- Real Madrid.
3️⃣. What is your best moment in football so far? -- training with Everton's first team.
4️⃣. At what age did you start playing football? -- I started at 3.
5️⃣. How many times do you train a week? -- 6 days a week.
6️⃣. If any, what pre-match preparations do you make? -- analysis before the game.
7️⃣. Where do you hope to see yourself in 10 years? -- conquering the top leagues in football.
8️⃣. What is one piece of advice you'd give to someone aspiring to play for England one day? -- work in silence and let your performance do the talking.
9️⃣. Your go-to meal before a match? -- egg sandwich with sausage and beans.
🔟. Do you feel nervous before matches? If yes how do you cope? -- no only because I believe I've prepared myself in private to the extent where I believe in my performance in the game.
1️⃣1️⃣. What is the lowest point of your career so far? -- definitely the 2021-22 season where I left Blackburn and was looking for another club.
1️⃣2️⃣. Toughest opponent you have played against? -- Gremio -- Brazilian team.
