England squad in full as Newcastle's Trippier and Wilson called up but Pope and Willock miss out

Newcastle United duo Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson have been called up for England duty for next month's Euro 2024 qualifying clashes with Malta and North Macedonia. The pair both featured for Gareth Southgate's side at the 2022 Qatar World Cup and will be hoping to play a part in next year's tournament.

Trippier enjoyed a stellar campaign as part of Eddie Howe's backline, with Newcastle boasting the meanest defence in the Premier League this term. Wilson's club form suffered after his World Cup jaunt but the forward has been back to his best of late, notching eight goals in April alone.

Unfortunately the two St James' Park favourites won't be joined by any club team-mates on international duty in June with Nick Pope missing out after undergoing hand surgery. The United goalkeeper has brought the surgery forward after Champions League football was secured earlier this week.
