Joe Lewis has gone from a loan spell at Morecambe, achieving promotion to League One with Peterborough United, an England under 21 debut to a call-up to the full national team in just five months.

It has been a whirlwind for the highly-rated goalkeeper and on Saturday morning he was facing shots from the best players in this country after being drafted into Fabio Capello's squad for training camp ahead of two friendly matches against the USA and Trinidad and Tobago.

Lewis, who was called-up following the withdrawal of Chris Kirkland, trained with the senior side twice on Saturday and harbours hopes of remaining in the party for the clash with USA at Wembley Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Lewis, speaking exclusively to theposh.com, said: 'I am over the moon and thrilled with the call-up. It came out of the blue and I am enjoying every minute of it. I trained with the squad on Saturday morning and it was superb to be involved with the best players in this country.

'There was a second training session at 5pm on Saturday and it is a fantastic experience for me. I managed to make a couple of good saves, which was a great feeling, especially from Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard! It is a great end to a fantastic season,' Lewis said.
