Ollie Watkins and Jarrod Bowen have returned to the England football team set-up but there is no place for Raheem Sterling once again.<\/p>\n

The penultimate camp of 2023 kicks off with a Wembley friendly against Australia before hosting Italy under the arch in a European Championship qualifier.<\/p>\n

Gareth Southgate named a 26-man squad for the October double-header, with uncapped Levi Colwill and Eddie Nketiah again getting the nod as a pair of in-form forwards made their long-awaited returns.<\/p>\n

Watkins has not been called up since March 2022 and returned days after Southgate watched the striker score a hat-trick in Aston Villa\u2019s 6-1 win against Brighton.<\/p>\n

Bowen returns to the England squad for the first time since September 2022 having scored five goals in seven league games for West Ham.<\/p>\n

There was no place for team-mate James Ward-Prowse despite his fine start to life in east London.<\/p>\n

Sterling was another conspicuous by his absence after Southgate overlooked the 82-cap Chelsea forward for September\u2019s fixtures. Mason Mount is also out despite returning to action with Manchester United.<\/p>\n

John Stones returned from injury and Bukayo Saka was selected despite fitness concerns, while Ben Chilwell, Eberechi Eze and Callum Wilson were ruled out.<\/p>\n

Harry Maguire and Kalvin Phillips retained their place despite ongoing questions over their playing time, while Jordan Henderson also remained after moving to Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

England squad in full<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Goalkeepers: Sam Johnstone, Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale.<\/p>\n

Defenders: Levi Colwill, Lewis Dunk, Marc Guehi, Harry Maguire, John Stones, Fikayo Tomori, Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker.<\/p>\n
