Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers has been called up to England’s squad for November’s Nations League internationals after eight players withdrew through injury.

West Ham forward Jarrod Bowen, Everton centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite along with Newcastle full-back Tino Livramento and Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford have also been added to interim boss Lee Carsley’s squad.

Chelsea pair Levi Colwill and Cole Palmer, Arsenal duo Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka, Manchester City midfielders Phil Foden and Jack Grealish, Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Southampton’s Aaron Ramsdale have all pulled out.

England face Greece on 14 November and the Republic of Ireland on 17 November.

The squad is Carsley’s final one as interim manager before Thomas Tuchel takes charge on a full-time basis in January 2025.
