Mikey Moore and Reiss-Alexander Russell-Denny are part of the England squad all set to kick-off their UEFA Under-19 Championship campaign in Romania on Saturday.

Forward Mikey, who made 18 appearances in his breakthrough season last term - including a place on the bench for our UEL Final victory against United in Bilbao last month - and midfielder Reiss, who impressed for our Under-21s, are with Will Antwi's squad preparing for England's opening game against Norway at the Ilie Oana Stadium in Ploiesti (3pm UK).

The Young Lions then face Germany on Tuesday (6pm UK) and finally the Netherlands at the Giulesti Stadium on Friday week (20 June, 6pm UK).

There are eight teams in the final tournament and the top two from two groups of four progress to the semi-finals.
