The Three Lions are currently top of their group, and they will go up against an unbeaten Greece side next time out. A number of players will get the chance to impress, with Tottenham’s Dominic Solanke getting his chance to impress, but there is surprisingly no place for James Maddison despite his impressive start to the campaign.

Palace stars Dean Henderson and Marc Guehi have both received the nod, as expected, with Chelsea’s Levi Colwill, Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke included. Arsenal’s Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka make the cut.

The full squad is as follows:

Goalkeepers: Dean Henderson, Jordan Pickford, Nick Pope.

Defenders: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Levi Colwill, Marc Guehi, Ezri Konsa, Rico Lewis, John Stones, Kyle Walker.

Midfielders: Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden, Conor Gallagher, Morgan Gibbs-White, Angel Gomes, Kobbie Mainoo, Cole Palmer, Declan Rice

Forwards: Anthony Gordon, Jack Grealish, Harry Kane, Noni Madueke, Bukayo Saka, Dominic Solanke, Ollie Watkins

Solanke gets the nod

Carsley has said of Solanke’s inclusion: "Dom is a player I am fully aware of and I have worked with him in the past. He was really close to being in the last squad - but he got injured just before the selection.

“He is a player that has done so well at Bournemouth and has taken that form into Spurs. He has got a lot of really good attributes that I like and as well as being a nice person, he is extremely talented and it is good that we have got him."

Along with Maddison, Eberechi Eze, Jarrod Bowen and Ivan Toney are among the big omissions from this squad, with the latter likely to struggle for call-ups following his Saudi Arabia move.
