The Straits Times|October 04, 2024
LONDON - After scoring in his last three games for Tottenham Hotspur, striker Dominic Solanke found himself in England interim manager Lee Carsley's squad for next week's Nations League games against Greece and Finland.
Solanke returns to England squad

The 27-year-old, who has impressed since joining Spurs from Bournemouth in a £65 million (S$110.6 million) deal in August, is set for his first England appearance since his debut in a friendly against Brazil in 2017.

Jude Bellingham, Cole Palmer, Phil Foden, Kyle Walker and Ollie Watkins are back in the 25-man squad after missing games against Ireland and Finland in September for various reasons.

There was no place for Tottenham midfielder James Maddison, Manchester United defender Harry Maguire or Crystal Palace winger Eberechi Eze, with Carsley saying it is not about form but that he wants to look at other options.

Solanke was not available for selection in Carsley's first squad because of an injury.

Gift Of The Magi

Let's say you never intended to use Magi. Let's say you know about all the scandals: the accusations of stolen data, the EU lawsuits, the CEO's abhorrent behaviour. Let's say you don't even believe the outlandish social media claims that the app is magical, like actual magic. You know it's not possible it reads your mind, plumbs your soul, knows your heart's desires. You're not so gullible.
