An FA statement released on Monday said: "Marcus Rashford will also miss out on the forthcoming UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers having picked up a knock during Manchester United's Emirates FA Cup quarterfinal win over Fulham on Sunday.

"Similarly, Mason Mount will not report for international duty this week as he continues rehabilitation with Chelsea."

Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur's Fraser Forster has been called up for injured goalkeeper Nick Pope. Forster, who made his debut in 2013, has six England caps but has not played since 2016.

England play Italy in their first Euro 2024 qualifier in Naples on Thursday before hosting Ukraine at Wembley on Sunday.
