Callum’s elder brothers both play, and their younger sibling’s achievements are another proud day for the family and also for the United Youth Academy.

To make the squad at such a young age is testament to Callum’s football ability but also his positive attitude and outlook on life.

A squad of 17 travel to Newport in Wales this week to face the other home nations with five coaching staff.

They are led by ex Manchester United and Northern Ireland star Mal Donaghy and Ballymena boy Callum is looking forward to representing both his country and his home town.
