Myles Lewis-Skelly paid the price for his lack of game time and now the City man gets his opportunity to stake a claim for a World Cup spot. The 20-year-old now goes into camp having become the latest defender to shut out Mohamed Salah. That's less of an achievement than it used to be, but O'Reilly still had to show tenacity and patience against this nuggety, late-era version of the Egyptian superstar.

Manchester City defender Nico O'Reilly was today added to the England squad for the upcoming doubleheader against Wales and Latvia. It is a first senior call-up for the 20-year-old, who moves up from the Under-21s, for the friendly with Wales on Thursday and the World Cup qualifier in Riga five days later. O'Reilly replaces Reece James in the squad after the Chelsea defender sustained an injury in his side's 2-1 defeat of Liverpool on Saturday evening.

Gabriel Gudmundsson, who joined in the summer from Lille, has had a tough start to life in the Premier League, and competition could be brought in mid-season. And one player that Leeds have on their radar is Nico O'Reilly, who has broken into the Man City first team fold over the course of 2025.
