Hutchinson in England U21s Squad - Ipswich Town News

Town forward Omari Hutchinson has been named in the England U21s squad for the European Championship in Slovakia next month, but former Blues striker Liam Delap has been left out.

Lee Carsley’s side will take on Czechia on Thursday 12th June, Slovenia on Sunday 15th June and Germany on Wednesday 18th June before the competition goes into its knockout phase.

Hutchinson, 21, has previously won four England U21s caps, scoring two goals.

There is no place in the squad for Delap with his new club Chelsea understood to have talked to the FA regarding withdrawing him from the competition in order to play for them at the Club World Cup in the US.

Town forward Jaden Philogene would have been in the squad but for the knee injury he suffered with the Blues in April.

England U21s: James Beadle (Brighton and Hove Albion), Teddy Sharman-Lowe (Chelsea), Tommy Simkin (Stoke City), Charlie Cresswell (FC Toulouse), Ronnie Edwards (Southampton), CJ Egan-Riley (Burnley), Tino Livramento (Newcastle United), Brooke Norton Cuffy (Genoa), Jarell Quansah (Liverpool), Elliot Anderson (Nottingham Forest), Jobe Bellingham (Sunderland), Archie Gray (Tottenham Hotspur), Hayden Hackney (Middlesbrough), Jack Hinshelwood (Brighton and Hove Albion), Tyler Morton (Liverpool), Alex Scott (AFC Bournemouth), Harvey Elliott (Liverpool), Omari Hutchinson (Ipswich Town), Sam Iling Jnr (Aston Villa), James McAtee (Manchester City), Ethan Nwaneri (Arsenal), Jonathan Rowe (Marseille), Jay Stansfield (Birmingham City).
