England men’s senior team kick-off their new UEFA Nations League 2022 campaign with four games in June.
The Three Lions take on Hungary twice, Germany and Italy across ten days in their League A group next month.
And manager Gareth Southgate has picked a 27-strong squad to cope with the schedule which sees trips to Budapest and Munich before facing two games in Wolverhampton.
There are two new faces in the group, with Leicester City defender James Justin and West Ham United forward Jarrod Bowen linking up after impressive campaigns with their clubs.
