Jobe Bellingham and Josh King get first England call-ups for Croatia and Spain games
Thomas Tuchel has picked a 25-man squad for the last two Nations League group matches of the year, with Harry Kane in line to become England's most-capped man.
Jobe Bellingham of Borussia Dortmund and Fulham's Josh King have been called up to the senior England squad for the first time.
Both are midfielders who move up from the under-21s. Bellingham, 21, joins his brother Jude, of Real Madrid, in the 25 players head coach Thomas Tuchel has named for the November international window. King already knows the set-up, having trained with the squad at its pre-World Cup camp in Florida in the summer.
England host Croatia at Wembley on Thursday 12 November, then travel to Madrid to face Spain on Sunday 15 November, the final two matches of their Nations League group. Both games kick off at 7.45pm.
Harry Kane drew level with Peter Shilton's record of 125 caps for the men's senior team during the last international window, so one more appearance would make the captain the outright record holder.
