Yunus Konak has been called up by Turkey's Under-21 national team for their upcoming UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifiers. The 20-year-old midfielder, on loan at Lincoln City from Brentford, will join the squad for matches against Ukraine on Saturday 26 September and Hungary on Tuesday 6 October.
The selection highlights Konak's development since moving to the ProAmpac Stadium. He has made three senior appearances for the Imps this season, featuring in two Carabao Cup fixtures and coming off the bench in the Sky Bet Championship draw with Southampton.
His progress comes as Lincoln City sit 9th in the Championship table with 11 points from seven matches. The team's recent form shows two wins, two draws and one defeat from their last five outings, including a 1-0 victory at Bristol City last weekend.
Konak's call-up offers encouragement about the club's role in nurturing young talent. The Imps face a tough test in their next Championship match at home to second-placed Swansea City. The latest squad information shows Daniel Oyegoke, Mason Melia, Tendayi Darikwa and Tom Hamer remain sidelined for that fixture.
