The England U17 squad for this month's European Championship campaign has been announced, as John Peacock's team look to take their first steps towards the finals in Germany next summer.
The Young Lions will face opposition from Armenia, Estonia and hosts Spain in their group, with the top two teams progressing to the Elite Qualifying Round which will be held next year.
The squad contains a number of players who were involved in The FA International U17 Trophy in August, which saw games against Portugal, Israel and Italy.
Many of the squad were part of the U16 team which enjoyed success in the Victory Shield and Montaigu Tournament last season too, so there is no shortage of international experience at this level within the group.
