Gareth Southgate adds three players to England squad after three stars miss training

Three England under-20 internationals joined the senior squad for a training session at St George’s Park, with Bukayo Saka, Callum Wilson and Levi Colwill all absent

England boss Gareth Southgate has called up three youngsters from the Under-20s squad to train with the senior team ahead of their Euro 2024 qualifier against Ukraine.

England are set to face Ukraine on Saturday and will be hoping to continue their unbeaten start to qualifying, having already won their first four games. As a result, they are currently top of Group C while Ukraine sit second ahead of Euro 2020 winners Italy.

Ukraine have only lost once, with that defeat coming against England at Wembley back in March. And in England’s first-training session at St George’s Park ahead of the game, Arsenal star Bukayo Saka, Newcastle striker Callum Wilson and Chelsea defender Levi Colwill were all absent.

Southgate called up Lewis Hall, Bashir Humphreys and Alfie Devine to join in training, with all three drafted in from Joe Edwards’ Under-20s squad which is also preparing at St George’s Park for games against Romania and Portugal.
