Two Boro starlets will jet out to the Czech Republic next week as England bid to reach the Under-17 European Championships.
Defender Dael Fry and Callum Cooke have been named in John Peacock’s 18-man squad for the final Elite Qualifying Round.
Academy defender Matty Elsdon is on stand-by for the trip too.
England are one of 28 teams battling in groups of four for a place in the finals in Malta in May.
Only the top team in each group will qualify. England are grouped with hosts Czech Republic, Albania and Italy.
Fry and Cooke caught the eye in last month’s Algarve Tournament. Schemer Cooke scored twice in a 2-2 draw with hosts Portugal and the duo also played in a 2-0 win against Holland and a 1-0 defeat to Germany.
Meanwhile another Academy product, Bryn Morris, narrowly missed out in the prestigious Football League awards.
The midfielder, who plays for England Under-18s, was pipped to the Championship Apprentice of the Year gong by Derby striker Mason Bennett.
