England U19s are back in action later this month as they continue their preparations for May's Elite Qualifying Round with a trip to the Netherlands to face Holland.
Head Coach
Noel Blake has selected an 18-man squad for the game as he looks to examine all of his options ahead of the matches with Switzerland, Spain and Montenegro and there are a few new names in there along with some of the more established players.
There are maiden call-ups for Tottenham Hotspur midfield duo
Tom Carroll and
Ryan Fredericks, who will be hoping to win their first caps at any level for England.
After previously winning caps at U16, U17 or U18 level, there are also call-ups for the likes of Everton forward
Jose Baxter, Southampton's
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Manchester United pair
Ravel Morrison and
Ryan Tunnicliffe who will all be looking to make their first appearances for the U19s.
Blake also welcomes defender
Andre Wisdom and midfielder
Gary Gardner back into the fold after injury.
The Young Lions are aiming to reach the last eight of the UEFA European U19 Championships for the fourth year in succession, but know that they will have to finish top in their tough group of four in order to progress to the Finals in Romania in July.
