England boss Roy Hodgson has called Manchester United starlet Jesse Lingard into his Three Lions squad.

He is also without Manchester United's Michael Carrick and Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy for Tuesday's game against France at Wembley.
And as a result Hodgson has turned to young winger Lingard, calling the 22-year-old into his squad.
Lingard has England experience, but only at Under-21 level, having clocked up eleven appearances for his country at that level.

Lingard's progress has not gone unnoticed by Hodgson and the Red Devil will now be hoping for the vote to make his senior international bow against the French.
