Two uncapped players in contention be named in Tuchel's first ever England squad

The Arsenal youngster has represented England at under-16, under-17, under-18 and under-19 level, while Newcastle defender Burn never received a call-up for any England youth squads previously.

talkSPORT also understands that Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers will be included as well as Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton.

Lewis-Skelly is braced for the call-up having enjoyed a strong first season in the Gunners first-team, making 25 appearances and scoring one goal, that being scored against Manchester City.

His efforts are set to be rewarded at international level as the 18-year-old will be in contention to play for his country.

While Lewis-Skelly is still in the infancy of his career, 32-year-old Burn's career has got better as he's got older.
