England men's youth squads named for March camp

There are four England men’s development teams in action during the March international window, with each of those Young Lions squads named.

Among this month’s games, our MU19s head to Portugal for UEFA U19 EURO qualifiers, knowing if they top their group then they’ll be heading across the border to Wales for the Finals in June.

Our MU18s are also playing competitive fixtures this month as they kick-start the new 2027 UEFA U19 EURO series, with the first qualifying stage which will continue into the 2026-27 season when this age group progress into the MU19s.

For the MU17s, they’re on home soil at St. George’s Park for UEFA U17 EURO games but won’t be able to reach this summer’s Finals in Estonia following their results in the first qualifying round last November.

And Neil Ryan’s MU20s will play an international away in Italy, a reverse fixture of their game in Chesterfield which ended in a 2-1 win for the Azzurrini last September.

You can see all the details of fixtures and squads below.
