Jadon Sancho is expected to make his first competitive start for England on Friday evening.

The 18-year-old has shone for Borussia Dortmund this season and made his international bow against Croatia back in October.

Now the winger is in line to start against the Czech Republic in England’s opening Euro 2020 qualifier, report the Independent.

Marcus Rashford missed team training on Thursday due to an ankle injury.

While Rashford has not been officially ruled out, he is not expected to be available at Wembley on Friday.

That leaves the door open for Sancho.

Fellow teenager Callum Hudson-Odoi is in the squad for the first time but will have to hope for a chance from the bench.
