UEFA U17 Euro 2026 Qualifiers : England U17 line-up to face Lithuania

This Friday at 11:00 (local time), England U17 side will take on Lithuania at the Broadwood Stadium in Cumbernauld as part of their UEFA U17 Euro 2026 qualifying campaign. After a disappointing start against Scotland — where the Young Lions conceded the only goal of the game in the dying moments — Liam Bramley’s side find themselves third in the group and now under pressure to win their remaining two matches, starting with today’s crucial encounter.

Bramley’s 22-man squad features several familiar faces from September’s training camp, along with a few new additions. Among them is goalkeeper Tommy Betts (Sheffield United), midfielder Charlie Holland (Chelsea FC), who receives his first U17 call-up, and forward Kyran Thompson (Arsenal FC). One of the youngest in the group, Mahdi Nicoll-Jazuli (Chelsea), born in 2010, continues his steady integration into this age category.

Also included is Brian Madjo, the Metz striker born in London but developed in Luxembourg, who previously represented the latter at both youth and senior level. During the September window, Madjo turned down another approach from the Luxembourg FA to reflect on his international future — a decision that ultimately led to his call-up with England.
