Kyle Walker recalled but four England stars axed as Lee Carsley names squad

2 hours ago 1

Kyle Walker regained his England spot as Lee Carsley dropped a number of players from his first squad on Thursday.

Harry Maguire, Eberechi Eze, Jarrod Bowen and Tino Livramento have all been left out.

Dominic Solanke got the nod for the upcoming Nations League fixtures with Greece and Finland as the squad was announced on Thursday.

Solanke has not played for the Three Lions in seven years, but got the call-up from Carsley following an impressive start to the season for Tottenham.

Joining Spurs for a fee of £65million, Solanke has netted three goals in six games so far for Ange Postecoglou‘s side.

While Solanke has received a call, teammate James Maddison has been left out of the squad once again.

There is also no place in the group for Morgan Rogers.

The Aston Villa star had been tipped for a call-up after a hugely impressive start to the season at Villa Park in which he has scored one and offered two assists in eight games.

Carsley will lead England for the third and fourth time after taking over as interim boss over the summer.

He boasts a perfect record in charge of the Three Lions after recording 2-0 wins over both the Republic Of Ireland and Finland during the September international break.

While still only interim head coach, the former England under-21 boss is favourite to succeed Gareth Southgate on a permanent basis.
