Leeds United youngster Charlie Cresswell will be eyeing international silverware this summer after being named in the England squad for the 2023 UEFA European U21 Championships. Cresswell was included in Lee Carsley’s training squad earlier this month and he has now made the final cut for the tournament.
As such, he will travel out to Georgia in the coming days with the rest of the England U21s squad to prepare for their opening group stage game next week. The Three Lions have been drawn to take on Czech Republic, Israel and Germany in Group C, with all three games taking part in Georgia, with the country sharing hosting duties with Romania.
England will play their first group game against Czech Republic on June 22 in Batumi and Cresswell will hope to secure a starting spot after recently returning from a facial injury. The centre-back, who has spent the season catching the eye while on loan with Millwall, has plenty of competition, though.
