Lee Carsley has turned to youth to kick off his reign as England’s interim manage by picking the uncapped Angel Gomes, Tino Livramento, Morgan Gibbs-White and Noni Madueke.
But there were no places for Marcus Rashford, James Maddison or Kyle Walker, while Kieran Trippier has retired from international football and Jude Bellingham is injured.
Carsley also brought back Jack Grealish, who was dropped by former manager Gareth Southgate for Euro 2024, along with Harry Maguire, who was ruled out of the tournament with injury, and Nick Pope.
And Carsley has given recalls to Rico Lewis and Levi Colwill, who have each only won one senior cap, as the Under-21 manager looks to the next generation.

Lee Carsley explains England selections
Lee Carsley has named five players from his England Under-21s team. He says he wanted to put his “own mark on the squad” and describes Morgan Gibbs-White and Angel Gomes as exciting players to watch, who deserve their call-ups.
He says Kyle Walker was not selected because he is yet to play for Manchester City this season and is being eased back following the Euros. Carsley says the majority of the squad have played regularly over the first two weeks of the season.
Carsley adds: “It’s important to also recognise how well (England) done in the past. We’ve come so close (to winning a trophy) but I thought it was important to put some fresh faces in the squad.”

Jude Bellingham an injury doubt for England games
Jude Bellingham is a doubt for England’s games against Ireland and Finland next week after the Real Madrid midfielder suffered a leg injury in training.
Reports in Spain suggest the 21-year-old will not be available until after the international break and a statement from Real Madrid released last Friday read:
“Following tests carried out today on Jude Bellingham by Real Madrid’s medical team, the player has been diagnosed with an injury to the plantaris muscle in his right leg.
“His progress will be monitored.”
He was not in the Real Madrid squad that beat Valladolid at the weekend.

Who makes Lee Carsley’s England squad?
So we know one England veteran from the Gareth Southgate era is not in the squad in Kieran Trippier – how about the likes of Harry Maguire and Kyle Walker?
Walker, 34, has been on the bench for Manchester City’s opening two games of the season, while Maguire missed the Euros in the summer and was replaced, impressively, by Marc Guehi.
Walker has insisted that he intends to continue his international career but Rico Lewis, his Manchester City team-mate, is a contender for his place.
