Solanke keeps place in England squad

Dominic Solanke has kept his place in the England Men's national team squad after Thomas Tuchel named his first squad as Head Coach.

Returning to the Three Lions squad back in October, Dom ended a seven-year wait for his next Three Lions cap as he came on as a second-half substitute in a UEFA Nations League clash with Greece at Wembley.

He was again included in the squad in November as Lee Carsley took interim charge of the England National Team and now, after his recent return from a knee injury, the forward has been chosen by Tuchel to retain his place.

And he heads into the squad in fine form after his two assists for Wilson Odobert against AZ Alkmaar on Thursday night helped send us through to the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

Ahead for Dom and England this month is the start of their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign. In qualifying Group K, Tuchel's side kick off their campaign on Friday 21 March with the visit of Albania to Wembley Stadium. They will then host Latvia on Monday 24 March (both 7.45pm kick offs UK).

Dom has three caps for his country so far.
