Manchester United forward Jesse Lingard has been called up by England for the first time ahead of Tuesday's game against France. The 22-year-old will join up with the squad on Sunday after two players were forced out through injury.
Lingard's United team-mate Michael Carrick was carried off in the last minute of England's 2-0 defeat to Spain on Friday and will not be available for England's final game of the year.
Meanwhile, Jamie Vardy, who sat out the game in Alicante with a knock sustained in Leicester's English Premier League match with Watford last weekend, will also be missing.
