Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford named in England Under-21 squad

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford has been called up by the England Under-21s for the first time.

The forward, who made two substitute appearances at Euro 2016 for the senior squad this summer, is in Gareth Southgate's squad to face Norway next month.

Rashford scored on his full debut against Australia in May but has now dropped down to Southgate's set-up for their Euro 2017 qualifier in Colchester.

He was considered for the Toulon Tournament - which England won - in the summer but eight goals in 18 games for United propelled him into Roy Hodgson's senior side.
