The 18-year-old could earn his first cap for the senior team.
England manager Roy Hodgson has announced the squad to take on Denmark next week as the nation prepares for the 2014 World Cup.
The big news is that 18-year-old Southampton left-back Luke Shaw has been called up to the senior squad for the first time and could earn his first full cap for the nation.
Liverpool winger Raheem Sterling has also been recalled to the Three Lions squad after having a great season with the Reds to date.
Surprisingly Jermain Defoe has been included on the eve of the striker moving to Canada to join MLS side FC Toronto.
However, there is no place for either Manchester City midfielder Gareth Barry (on-loan at Everton) or Sunderland winger Adam Johnson, despite them both having a good campaign to date.
Here is the squad in full:

Whilst there are four goalkeepers in Hodgson’s 30-man group, in the absence of Toffees captain Phil Jagielka only three centre-backs have been selected and along with Shaw, Leighton Baines and Ashley Cole make up three left-backs.
