When talkSPORT host Andy Goldstein told him the good news, Hammers fan Dyer exclaimed, "Yes!", while grinning and punching the air.
He added: “I swear to God I had no idea! So he’s going, he’s on the plane – as he should be! Listen, I’m over the moon mate. This kid, he deserves it. He’s worked hard. I thought he had a lovely 90 minutes [against Bosnia]. I’ve been listening to your lovely show of course, the governors, having a debate over playing time and what does that mean? If they play a lot that means they might not go and you two were in debate about maybe if they don’t play they’re certain to go. Or, they’re a certainty to go as [Southgate] knows what he’ll get from them. I just think – he should have nicked a goal at the end, obviously, [Ezri] Konsa got in the way! They’re good pals them two. But I’m over the moon! That’s great for my Dani as well, and Jarrod, because they didn’t quite know what they were doing this summer you know having a holiday or not. That also means I’m going to the Euros!”
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Bowen, 27, enjoyed a superb individual season for the Hammers, scoring 20 goals and bagging 10 assists in all competitions. Now his form has been rewarded and he will head off to Germany with the Three Lions squad in search of silverware.

Prior to his call-up, Bowen quipped heading to the Euros will give him a break from his twin baby daughters.
He told reporters this week: "My little girls have just turned one. When you come away you miss them. It’s my first experience with children. To FaceTime them during down time, they recognise you and get excited. It gives you that bit of a buzz because you know what you’ve got back home. But when I’m on FaceTime with my missus, they’re all causing carnage – crawling around the house, and the little one running. Sometimes, I’m glad I’m here! But from where I’ve come from, to go to a major tournament would be the pinnacle. There’s a lot that goes into getting to that stage."
