England have added Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones and Newcastle United right-back Tino Livramento to their senior squad for October's internationals.
The Three Lions were recently forced to bid farewell to injured trio Morgan Gibbs-White, Ezri Konsa and Kobbie Mainoo, leaving them short on numbers ahead of Nations League fixtures against Greece and Finland.
To help replace the three injured stars, England have added Jones and Livramento to the group to take the number of players available to Carsley up to 23.
Both players have previously featured in a senior England squad but are awaiting their first caps. Jones was called up in May 2024 under Gareth Southgate, while Livramento was part of Carsley's first squad last month.
All eyes remain on the fitness of striker Harry Kane, who continues to train away from the group after picking up a knock with Bayern Munich.
Manchester City winger Jack Grealish also sat out training with a knock of his own, but is not believed to have suffered any significant damage.
Greece head to Wembley on Thursday for a top-of-the-table clash which could go a long way to deciding who comes out on top in Nations League B Group 2, before a trip to Finland is scheduled three days later.
