Three Everton stars earn England call-ups for November internationals

Three Everton stars have earned England call-ups for the upcoming November international break.

Jordan Pickford, Michael Keane and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have all kept their places in Gareth Southgate's squad for matches against the Republic of Ireland, Belgium and Iceland over the coming weeks.

The Three Lions take on Ireland in a friendly on November 12 before rounding off their Nations League group matches with the other two fixtures.

Calvert-Lewin enjoyed a fantastic senior England debut in last month's internationals, bagging the opening goal in a 3-0 win over Wales in October.

Fellow Everton man Michael Keane played in that match, but didn't feature in either of England's other games last month despite showing some brilliant form for his club since the return from lockdown.

Pickford, meanwhile, will get the chance to defend his place as England's regular No. 1 following being placed on the bench by Carlo Ancelotti for Everton's last game against Newcastle United.

The Blues shot-stopper was in goal for both of England's competitive fixtures last month against Belgium and Denmark, but was on the bench for the win over Wales in a friendly.
