Brian Eastick has named his squad for the European U19 Championship Finals.

UEFA European U19 Championship
Finals
21 July - 2 August
Donetsk & Mariupol, Ukraine


England U19s travel to Ukraine next month for the European U19 Championship Finals and Head Coach Brian Eastick has named his 18 man squad for the competition.

The Young Lions sealed their place in the last eight of the competition earlier this month when they emerged from their Elite Qualfying Round group with three wins out of three against Bosnia-Herzegovina, Slovakia and Scotland.

They now find themselves in a group with hosts Ukraine, Slovenia and Switzerland and know that if they can finish in the top two of that table they will progress to the semi-final.

The bulk of the squad is similar to the one which successfully progressed through the Elite Round, but there are returns to the group for the likes of Kyle Walker, Nathan Baker, Henri Lansbury, Danny Welbeck and Dan Gosling who all missed the previous games because of either club commitments or injury.
