Leicester City's Ben Chilwell has praised the influence of Gareth Southgate and Claude Puel on his career, as he states his belief that his performances for England during the international break proved that he can compete with the best.
Since his breakthrough season for Leicester last season, playing 24 times in the Premier League, Chilwell's career trajectory has continued to soar. The Foxes left-back earned his first senior England call-up earlier in the campaign, and started both of the most recent Nations League fixtures against Spain and Croatia.
Having played against the likes of Luka Modric, Marco Asensio and Iago Aspas during the international break, Chilwell believes he proved a point with his performances.
