England’s interim manager, Lee Carsley, has completed his first coaching task after publishing his first Three Lions list ahead of the September international break, where England will play two Nations League fixtures.
England faces Ireland and Finland on September 7 in Dublin and September 10 at Wembley, respectively, in the Nations League. The two fixtures are Carsley’s first since he was appointed to replace Gareth Southgate after the latter’s resignation at the end of Euro 2024, where they lost to Spain in the final.
Carsley called back Manchester City’s Jack Grealish, who was dropped from the Euros squad, and a return also for Manchester United’s Harry Maguire while he’s banked on a lot of players who played under him at the U-21 level. They include Noni Madueke, Angel Gomes, Morgan Gibbs-White, and Tino Livramento.
In total, there are six players who played under Carsley at the U-21 Euros last year, where England won, with the others being Cole Palmer, Anthony Gordon, and Levi Coldwell, aside from Gomes and Gibbs-White.
Meanwhile, some key players who have been left out include Ben White, Ivan Toney, Kyle Walker, and Aaron Ramsdale. There’s no place for Marcus Rashford and James Maddison, while Kieran Tripper announced his retirement from international football on Thursday.
Full England squad:
Goalkeepers: Dean Henderson (Crystal Palace), Jordan Pickford (Everton), Nick Pope (Newcastle United).
Defenders: Marc Guehi (Crystal Palace), Ezri Konsa (Aston Villa), John Stones (Manchester City), Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Levi Colwill (Chelsea), Rico Lewis (Manchester City), Tino Livramento (Newcastle), Harry Maguire (Manchester United).
Midfielders: Conor Gallagher (Atletico Madrid), Kobbie Mainoo (Manchester United), Declan Rice (Arsenal), Cole Palmer (Chelsea), Morgan Gibbs-White (Nottingham Forest), Angel Gomes (Lille), Phil Foden (Manchester City).
Forwards: Jarrod Bowen (West Ham), Eberechi Eze (Crystal Palace), Jack Grealish (Manchester City), Anthony Gordon (Newcastle United), Harry Kane (Bayern Munich), Noni Madueke (Chelsea), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), Ollie Watkins (Aston Villa).
