DOMINIC SOLANKE RETURNS TO ENGLAND SQUAD FOR NATIONS LEAGUE MATCHES

Date:

Tottenham striker Dominic Solanke has been named in England’s squad for this month’s Nations League matches against Greece and Finland.

This marks Solanke’s first call-up since he made his only appearance for the national team in a substitute role against Brazil in 2017.

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire, Tottenham playmaker James Maddison, and Crystal Palace winger Eberechi Eze were omitted from the squad.

In contrast, Kyle Walker, who was absent from the previous England selection, has earned a recall as well as Real Madrid’s Jude Bellingham who has been included after missing the September fixtures due to injury.

England will host Greece at Wembley on 10th October before facing Finland away on 13th October.
