Kenny Swain has named his U16 squad for the upcoming Victory Shield encounter, against Northern Ireland on Thursday 5 November.

Ten players retain their place in the squad following the 1-0 defeat of Wales at the end of October, while Elikem Amenku, who had to withdraw from that squad, has been called up once more. Stephen Arthurworrey, Shay Facey, Bradley Jordan, Nick Powell, Blair Turgott, George Willis and Jack Barmby, son of Nick, have all been included in an England squad for the first time.

A late Zak Ansah header allowed Swain’s side to collect three points against Wales, while Northern Ireland were beaten 2-1 by Scotland in their Shield opener.
