It is a damning indicator of Crystal Palace's scarce amount of talented Englishman.

The Eagles have no players in Gareth Southgate's senior squad, and haven't had a single player named in the Three Lions team since Wilfried Zaha was called up by a certain Roy Hodgson back in 2012.

The south Londoners are well represented in Africa - Jordan Ayew, Zaha and Cheikhou Kouyate were recently named in the Ghana, Ivory Coast and Senegal squads respectively.

For England, however, Palace representatives are few and far between.

Scratch beneath the surface a little bit and head down the age ranks a tad, and you will find a Palace player's name in there - 17-year-old Jadan Raymond.

The teenager is a hot prospect having scored the winning penalty in the Syrenka Cup for England's U17 side, while reportedly starring throughout the entire tournament.

Raymond's ability has alerted Champions League sides such as Benfica and Valencia to his talent, who are believed to be plotting moves to sign him.

In this current international break, Raymond has once again been selected to represent England's U17 side for the upcoming matches against Denmark and Czech Republic.

He was also named in the squad for games against Spain and Germany at the start of October, and while it remains to be seen whether or not Raymond is poached by some of Europe's biggest clubs, he is currently one of very few Palace players who are actually making movements on the international scene for England.

The Athletic's Crystal Palace correspondent Matt Woosnam recently wrote of how Raymond - along with Fionn Mooney and Joe Whitworth - played vital roles in defeating Arsenal and Chelsea on their way to being crowned national champions at U15 level after winning the Super Floodlit Cup.

With so few senior players actually doing Palace proud for England across multiple age ranks, Raymond is arguably the one flying the flag highest.
