Newcastle United star called up by England for June fixtures - but duo miss out
Gareth Southgate has included a Newcastle United player in his England squad - the first time that has happened since 2016.
Kieran Trippier has been called up by England for their upcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures.
Gareth Southgate’s side take on Hungary twice, Germany and Italy across ten days in their League A group in June.
The 31-year-old is set to become the first Newcastle United player to represent the Three Lions since Andros Townsend in 2016.
Dan Burn and Matt Targett, viewed as potential contenders to be selected, have not been included.
Callum Wilson, who scored twice during the Magpies’ 2-1 win at Burnley on Sunday, will have one eye on making November’s World Cup squad, if he can maintain his fitness.
Trippier made his first start since February on the final day of the Premier League season at Turf Moor.
The former Tottenham Hotspur man had previously been ruled out with a broken metatarsal.
Trippier will be looking forward to some much-needed game time before taking a break and returning to Newcastle for pre-season.
