The season will indeed end on a high note for Leeds United star Kalvin Phillips after he has been named in England's squad for the Nations League ahead of their four games in 11 days. Phillips will hope to continue his partnership with Declan Rice after the two impressed at EURO 2020, ahead of the World Cup in Qatar this winter.
