Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham is making his return to the England squad under interim coach Lee Carsley, marking his first involvement since the European Championship. Bellingham, who missed September's internationals due to injury, is set to participate in the Nations League games against Greece and Finland.
Chelsea's Cole Palmer, another player returning from injury, joins Bellingham in Carsley's 25-man lineup. Carsley, who stepped up as interim head coach following Gareth Southgate's departure post-Euros, has won his initial two matches and may secure a long-term appointment should his good form continue.
England is scheduled to face Greece at Wembley on October 10 and Finland on October 13 at Helsinki's Olympiastadion. The squad also sees the return of Manchester City's Kyle Walker, marking his comeback after sitting out the September matches.
