Having initially named a 26-strong provisional party on May 17, the Three Lions boss had to whittle the squad down by three ahead of Tuesday’s UEFA deadline.

Manchester City’s Fabian Delph had already dropped out due to a groin complaint, with the Football Association confirming that Newcastle winger Townsend and Leicester midfielder Drinkwater had not made the 23-man squad.
