Harry Maguire recalled back to England squad, but there is no space for lover boys Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden

England national team head coach Gareth Southgate has recalled Harry Maguire and left out youngsters Phil Foden and Mason Greenwood on Thursday during the naming of the squad.

As revealed by Sportsmail , Southgate  named an extended 30 man squad for the games against Wales, Belgium and Denmark amid fatigue concerns for a number of players.

Harry Maguire has been called up to the squad despite his forthcoming retrial after being found guilty on three separate counts following an incident involving police on the Greek island of Mykonos.

In contrast, Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden have been dropped following their Iceland team hotel shame.

Other notable inclusions are Gunners defender Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Wolves skipper Conor Coady, Leeds midfielder Kalvin Phillips and Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish, who all retain their places following their first call-ups in September.  

He also has handed debut call-ups to Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Harvey Barnes and Bukayo Saka for the forthcoming England triple-header.

The trio have been promoted into the senior squad for the first time following excellent performances for their clubs post-lockdown.
