Tino Livramento has returned to the England Under-21s squad for the first time in over 18 months.<\/p>\n
The Newcastle defender has not featured since March 2022, having suffered a serious knee injury a month later which ruled him out for over a year.<\/p>\n
He has made four appearances for Newcastle since his \u00a332million move from Southampton in August.<\/p>\n
Aaron Ramsey has also returned, with Brentford goalkeeper Matthew Cox \u2013 currently on loan at Bristol Rovers \u2013 Liverpool defender Jarell Quansah, Hull\u2019s Jaden Philogene and Jonathan Rowe of Norwich given their first call ups for the Euro qualifiers against Serbia and Ukraine.<\/p>\n
Boss Lee Carsley said: \u201cTino is a player we rate highly, it\u2019s going to be good to have him back in and around the squad.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s been out for a while injured, so we\u2019ll be looking to support him and Newcastle with that.<\/p>\n
\u201cJaden and Jonathan are both doing really well with their clubs at the minute \u2013 they\u2019re players who are in form which is always a good position for us to be in.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe also have Jarell Quansah in the squad for the first time. He\u2019s been getting game time at Liverpool which, as we know, is a really tough team to get into for any player, so he deserves to be a part of this squad.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Young Lions, the defending champions, host Serbia in Group F at the City Ground next Thursday before facing Ukraine in Slovakia on October 16.<\/p>\n
The players need to know they have to keep performing<\/p>\n
Carsley added: \u201cWe always talk about the players pushing each other and we should never be in a position where we\u2019re doing a copy and paste of the squad list.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe players need to know they have to keep performing, either with their clubs or when they\u2019re on camp with us.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are some players in the squad who weren\u2019t with us last time and there are four or five who are really close to getting in this squad.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen we look at the Elite League squad (previously Under-20s), that\u2019s also a very competitive age group and we want to have them in the position where they are pushing these players in the older age group.\u201d<\/p>\n
