- The Leicester City pair both played for England’s Under-21s on Thursday
- Chilwell and Gray could potentially feature in Tuesday’s clash with Switzerland at King Power Stadium (8pm BST kick-off)

Chilwell, an Academy graduate and Gray, a January 2016 arrival from Birmingham City, both impressed for England Under-21s on Thursday against the Netherlands alongside Foxes team-mate James Maddison.

The news comes as the Three Lions head to Filbert Way for a friendly clash with Switzerland, who last time out defeated Iceland 6-0 in the UEFA Nations League.

Chilwell is the first Academy graduate to earn a senior call up for England since Emile Heskey, while it is the first time since 1974 that City have had three players in an England squad. 

Tickets for what will no doubt be an entertaining game remain on sale and are available via TheFA.com/Tickets.
