One shock inclusion is Manchester City‘s Kalvin Phillips.

The midfielder has barely played this season and has now earned more call-ups (2) than starts (1) for his club.

European-based stars Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham have also received calls after their impressive form for Bayern Munich and Real Madrid respectively.

Kane has netted an incredible 19 goals and seven assists in 14 Bundesliga and Champions League appearances.

While Bellingham has continued to prove that he is one of the world’s best midfielders.

He has also been in supreme goalscoring form having bagged 13 goals in 14 matches in all competitions for the LaLiga giants.

The defence sees Harry Maguire, Kyle Walker, Marc Guehi, Levi Colwill, and Kieran Tripper receive recalls.

While Lewis Dunk and Fikayo Tomori have also kept hold of their places.

John Stones however will miss out on the two matches due to an injury he picked up in the Champions League win over Young Boys.

Man City manager Pep Guardiola admitted that Stones could be out for a “while”.,

Moving forward, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Eberechi Eze, Conor Gallagher, Declan Rice and Jordan Henderson join Bellingham and Phillips as Southgate’s midfield options.

Sam Johnstone has kept his spot in the team despite Nick Pope’s form at Newcastle.

Meanwhile, other goalkeepers Aaron Ramsdale and Jordan Pickford have kept hold of their spots.

In terms of forward options, Southgate will have Bukayo Saka, Jack Grealish, Phil Foden and Marcus Rashford have been called up.

James Maddison has been given a spot in the squad despite his injury fears.

Callum Wilson and Ollie Watkins have also been recalled and will compete with Kane for a starting spot.

West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen has also earned a recall to the national team after his form.

The forward broke the Premier League record for scoring in his first six away games this season.

However, there is no space for Arsenal star Eddie Nketiah.

The striker has been left out of the team despite netting a hat-trick in October against Sheffield United.
