Ben White has been handed a shock England recall after over three years out of the squad after Thomas Tuchel was forced into two changes due to injuries.
The Arsenal defender has not featured in a Three Lions camp since leaving the squad at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, with White subsequently asking not to be considered for selection by then-manager Gareth Southgate.
He replaces Bayer Leverkusen’s Jarell Quansah in the squad for March’s internationals against Uruguay and Japan, while Gunners teammate Eberechi Eze has also been ruled out due to a calf problem.
Newcastle winger Harvey Barnes has been chosen to fill the void left by Eze, whose only appearance for the senior team came in October 2020.
