Manchester City’s Phil Foden and Leicester City’s James Maddison have been named in England’s Under-21 squad for Euro 2019.
Crystal Palace defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who was tipped for a senior call-up this summer, has also been selected along with Chelsea starlets Tammy Abraham, Fikayo Tomoroi and Mason Mount.

Manager Aidy Boothroyd has also called up Wolves midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White for the first time in a squad of few surprises.
However, there is no place for Everton winger Ademola Lookman.
England face France, Romania and Croatia in Group C, with their opening game against France on June 18 in Cesena.
Boothroyd, who signed a contract extension earlier this month, said: “This is a really strong squad and I’m really pleased with the group of players I’ve got, who will be representing us at the Euros.
“We have a big pool of talent in the England set-up and I had some tough selection decisions to make as there’s a lot of strength in depth.

Ademola Lookman’s playing time has been restricted under Marco Silva
“We have a real mixture in terms of age and experience. We’ve got Tammy [Abraham], Demarai [Gray] and Angus [Gunn] who were part of the Euros squad in 2017, but also have nine players who are young enough to be eligible for the next qualifying campaign.
“This group have also won a lot at youth level and know the work and application that it takes.
“We’ll need that experience and winning mentality for the Euros. It’s always a really tough tournament and I think this year is as strong as it’s ever been.
“It’s a great opportunity for our players to showcase their talents as individuals and as a team.”
