James Maddison and Callum Wilson are in England's World Cup squad after Gareth Southgate handed the in-form pair their first international call-ups in three years. With 11 days to go until the Three Lions kick-off their Group B campaign against Iran, the former defender has confirmed the 26-man group that will be travelling to the Gulf next week.
Southgate has largely stuck with the tried and tested, with the most eye-catching selections being Leicester attacking midfielder Maddison and Newcastle striker Wilson. Maddison's only England cap came as a substitute against Montenegro in November 2019 - the last squad four-cap Wilson was involved in.
Southgate said he had decided two weeks ago that Maddison would be in the squad.
