Diary

Friday, 14 October 2016 - England will face World Champions Germany in a friendly at Dortmund's Westfalenstadion in 2017.

Monday, 13 March 2017 - Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson has 'no chance' of featuring in the England squad, says his manager Jurgen Klopp. Henderson, 26, has missed the last three games with a foot injury and will miss Sunday's trip to Manchester City. "The international break, these two weeks, can bring him back, but there's no game possible. He cannot train. Hopefully he can run in the second week of the international break and then we have to see."

Tuesday, 14 March 2017 - Tottenham striker Harry Kane has suffered ligament damage to his right ankle - but it is not thought to be as severe as the injury that sidelined him for seven weeks earlier this season. Kane was replaced after seven minutes of Sunday's 6-0 FA Cup quarter-final win over Millwall. He was hurt when defender Jake Cooper blocked his shot close to the byeline. Spurs said the injury is similar to the one Kane picked up against Sunderland on 18 September.

Thursday, 16 March 2017 - Gareth Southgate named his squad on Facebook for the matches next week against Germany and Lithuania. Southampton duo Nathan Redmond and James Ward-Prowse earn their first ever call-ups, whereas Jake Livermore earns his first call up since September 2012. Jermain Defoe returns for the first time since being on standby in May 2014. Phil Jones returns for the first time since November 2015. Luke Shaw returns also, having not played since September 2015, although he was a withdrawn squad member a year later in September 2016. Ross Barkley returns for the first time under Gareth Southgate.

Saturday, 18 March 2017 - Michail Antonio is likely to be withdrawn from the England squad because of a hamstring injury, says Hammers manager Slaven Bilić. The 26-year-old reported the injury after today's 3-2 Premier League defeat by Leicester City, having played the full 90 minutes at London Stadium. "It looks like Michail won't be able to go with the England squad," said Bilić. "He felt something. He played the whole game but the medical team have told me now. He didn't limp off, though, so we will see."

Monday, 20 March 2017 - As the players start to arrive at St. George's Park, Michail Antonio officially withdraws from the squad because of his hamstring injury. England's new midnight blue third kit is also released.

Tuesday, 21 March 2017 - Phil Jones returns to Manchester United FC after picking up an injury during the training session. The session was well-attended by 24 of the 25 man squad, with only Raheem Sterling having a private training session.

Wednesday, 22 March 2017 - England lose to Germany by a single, but spectacular, goal from Lukas Podolski.

Thursday, 23 March 2017 - The England squad spend the afternoon having a recovery session at VfL Bochum's training ground before heading back to London.

Friday, 24 March 2017 - The England squad are spending the day at The Grove Spa Resort at Chandler's Cross in Watford. England's Head Rugby Coach Eddie Jones has joined them.
Middlesbrough FC's Ben Gibson is drafted into the squad as a replacement for Chris Smalling, who has withdrawn because of injury, and returned to his club. Gary Cahill, who is suspended for the match, has also returned to his club, Chelsea FC.

Saturday, 25 March 2017 - The England squad train together, along with new recruit, Ben Gibson, at the training ground of Tottenham Hotspur FC. It was also announced that Joe Hart will captain the side tomorrow, as he will also be celebrating his seventieth appearance for his country.
