Jobe Bellingham has received his maiden England senior call-up for November’s Nations League fixtures against Croatia and Spain.
Bellingham’s call-up comes as manager, Thomas Tuchel opted to strengthen his midfield in the absence of winger, Bukayo Saka who is sidelined with a quad injury.
Josh King meanwhile has been recalled to midfield after he featured in England’s World Cup warm-up squad in June.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, Trevoh Chalobah and Nico O’Reilly have been dropped in defence, with Jarrad Branthwaite, Djed Spence and Ben White recalled.
Declan Rice returns in midfield after he missed the autumn quadruple header due to injury.
