But there are no places for Manchester United duo Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford, along with Aston Villa’s Tyrone Mings.

Southgate has given Toney, 26, his big chances after his terrific form for Brentford.

He scored 14 times last term and has already struck five times this season.

The former  Newcastle forward, who joined from Peterborough in an initial deal worth £5m in 2020, comes into the squad as Southgate is short of in-form strikers other than Harry Kane.
