England U19s have announced their squad for the upcoming European Championship qualifiers, with Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho receiving his first call-up.

­­­Sancho was part of the U17 side that recently won the World Cup, although he was recalled by Dortmund before the knockout stages of the tournament.

The former Manchester City winger scored three times in three group games before returning to Germany, and has now been rewarded for his form with a promotion to Keith Downing's U19 side.

Other notable inclusions in the squad include Eddie Nketiah, the Arsenal striker who scored twice on his home debut against Norwich in October, and his Gunners team-mate Reiss Nelson.

Fulham left-back Ryan Sessegnon, who has interested Manchester United and Tottenham in the past, makes the squad.

He is joined by Chelsea attacking midfielder Mason Mount, who is currently on loan at Vitesse Arnhem and was named by France Football as one of their twelve 'new monsters' predicted to dominate the sport in the near future.

England will play the Faroe Islands and Iceland at home, before travelling to play Bulgaria in their final match. They are the reigning European champions, having won last season's tournament in Georgia.

As well as the U19 side, England's U17s and U20s have also announced their latest squads.

The U17s have named a totally new squad for their friendlies against Portugal, Russia and Germany from the one that won the World Cup in India last month.

Several of the victorious squad have been rested, while some are now too old to be considered for the next tournament cycle.

The U20s have included Reece Oxford in their squad for the match against Germany. The West Ham defender is on loan at Borussia Monchengladbach, but only made his debut as an 89th-minute substitute away to Hoffenheim on Saturday.

Like the U17 and U19 sides, the U20s are also defending a title, after they won the U20 World Cup last season.
