England Under-21s take on France on Saturday as they step up their preparations for this summer's European Championships in Romania and Georgia.
Lee Carsley has named a strong squad for this international break as he seeks to nail down his starting line-up ahead of what many believe to be a real shot at success this summer. Thirteen of the 26-man squad currently play in the Premier League, while a further nine are on loan from top flight teams to the Championship or other European leagues.
Manchester City feature heavily. Rico Lewis and Cole Palmer have been rewarded with call-ups, and are also joined by James Trafford, who has been on-loan at Bolton Wanderers again this campaign, while Sheffield United loanees Tommy Doyle and James McAtee have also been. They pair are set to be denied an appearance at Wembley against their parent club in next month's FA Cup semi-final.
