Everton duo recalled for latest England squad

Jordan Pickford and Michael Keane have been named in England’s latest squad.

The Everton duo were called up for Gareth Southgate’s provisional 27-man squad for the Three Lions’ upcoming Nations League showdown with Holland.

Both players are set to face off against Ronald Koeman, who signed the pair during his time as Blues manager, in the semi-final with the Dutch on June 6.

Pickford remains England’s first-choice goalkeeper following a season in which he built on the impressive performances at the World Cup for Marco Silva’s side.

Keane was recalled by Southgate in November after a return to form with Everton and scored in the Euro 2020 qualifier with Montenegro in March.

England are set to confirm their final 23-man squad for the Nations League prior to jetting out to Portugal for the competition at the beginning of next month.
