All
information is complete to and including England's last match, the third
of the 2023-24 season, against Australia on 13 October 2023.
Diary
Thursday, 5 October 2023 -
Gareth Southgate names his 26-man squad
and has recalled Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins for October's games
against Australia and Italy at Wembley. Watkins,
who last featured for England in March 2022, continued his
impressive start to the season with a hat-trick against Brighton
on Saturday. There is also a recall for Jarrod Bowen, who last
featured for England in May 2022.
Bukayo Saka,
is also included, but is 'still being assessed' after Arsenal manager
Mikel Arteta described the winger's latest injury - a muscular problem
which forced him off after 34 minutes against Lens on Tuesday - as 'a
worry'. Chelsea
forward Raheem Sterling is left out of a fourth successive squad.
Sunday, 8 October
2023 - Following Arsenal's Premier League victory over
Manchester City tonight, manager Mikel Arteta states that Bukayo Saka
will not be joining up with the England squad because of a hamstring
injury. 'No, he will not make it, he has trained for a single session.
He is not available to play football at the moment'. Saka missed his first Premier League game
since May 2021, a total of 87 consecutive appearances. There is no
word from Gareth Southgate, however.
Monday, 9 October 2023 - Stéphanie Frappart will referee Friday's international friendly between England
and Australia, becoming the first female official to oversee a men's
international match at Wembley.
Frenchwoman Frappart became the first woman to referee a
men's World Cup fixture
during Qatar 2022 when she took charge of Germany's 4-2 victory
over Costa Rica. Peter
Elsworth, the FA's head of refereeing operations, said: "Stephanie is
an outstanding referee. We're
delighted she and her team will take charge of our upcoming fixture
against Australia in front of a sold-out crowd at Wembley Stadium and
we're looking forward to welcoming them to the home of English
football." The
39-year-old has been a trailblazer for female referees, taking charge
of men's Ligue 2 and Ligue 1 fixtures in France, as well as being the
first woman to
officiate in the Champions League
and UEFA Super Cup. The squad arrive at St. George's Park. The
medical team assess Bukayo Saka's hamstring injury and decide that it
is in his best interest to continue his rehabilitation at his club.
Tuesday, 10
October 2023 - On the day the UK are confirmed as hosts of Euro
2028, 24 of the 25-man squad spend their first full day of training at
St. George's Park. The missing player, Kyle Walker, is having a
personal session indoors.
Thursday, 12 October 2023 - The
England squad relocate to Tottenham Hotspur FC training centre.
Friday, 13 October 2023 - England 1
Australia 0 - Ollie Watkins
marked his return to the England side with the winner as Gareth
Southgate's side overcame Australia in a friendly at Wembley. Aston
Villa striker Watkins turned in Jack Grealish's shot from almost
on the goalline just before the hour in one of the few positive
moments in a largely undistinguished England display. Watkins made
amends for hitting the post with a good chance in the first half as
Australia paid the price for not taking advantage of several
opportunities before the break. In a game
which saw Stephanie Frappart become the first female referee to take
charge of a men's international at Wembley, England were fortunate not
to be behind at half-time. Sam Johnstone,
given his chance in goal, saved well from Keanu Baccus while Mitchell
Duke volleyed inches wide and Lewis Dunk cleared off the line from
Ryan Strain. Australia also wasted a good chance to level late on when
Connor Metcalfe hit the post with a header as England secured a
morale-boosting win before Tuesday's Euro 2024 qualifier with Italy at
Wembley.
Sunday & Monday, 15 & 16 October 2023 - All 25 members of the
squad continue to train at the facilities of Tottenham Hotspur FC
Training Centre in Enfield.
