Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones and Tottenham‘s Japhet Tanganga have been handed their first England Under-21 call ups.

The pair have been selected for the Young Lions’ Euro 2021 qualifiers in Andorra and visit of Turkey.

There is a recall for Burnley‘s Dwight McNeil after he was left out of last month’s squad while Norwich’s Ben Godfrey is included ahead of his £30million move to Everton.
