An injury to Newcastle United goalkeeper Nick Pope means that Tottenham Hotspur star Fraser Forster has been called up to England's squad for upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers, as per The Athletic
Pope had been called up by Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate on Thursday afternoon, named as one of three goalkeepers in the squad alongside Everton's Jordan Pickford and Arsenal man Aaron Ramsdale. However, the former Burnley shot-stopper has since withdrawn after picking up a minor injury earlier this week.
That left a spot in the squad, which will be filled by Spurs' Forster, who has been standing in for club captain Hugo Lloris since the veteran Frenchman sustained an injury against Manchester City earlier this year. The 35-year-old has performed admirably in Lloris' absence, earning the praise of Lilywhites head coach Antonio Conte in the process.
