But City youngster Rico Lewis was not chosen by manager Lee Carsley.

The versatile 18-year-old has been capped just once by the England Under-21s.

But many expected him to be in the squad for the Euros after impressing in the Treble-winning Man City team.

Lewis played 23 times for the club in his breakthrough season, making 16 starts.

His Man City team-mates Cole Palmer, Tommy Doyle, Taylor Harwood-Bellis and James Trafford have all made England’s 23-man squad.

Palmer has featured 38 times under Pep Guardiola.

Meanwhile, the other trio all spent the season out on loan, with Doyle at Sheffield United, Harwood-Bellis at Burnley and Trafford was between the sticks at Bolton.

England will play Czech Republic, Israel and Germany in the group stages of the tournament.
