WALES SQUAD ANNOUNCED viewtopic.php?f=2&t=173445
Rashford only made his debut for Manchester United on 25 February
Manchester United's teenage striker Marcus Rashford has been named in Roy Hodgson's 23-man England squad for the 2016 European Championship in France.
Rashford, 18, scored on his international debut in the 2-1 friendly victory over Australia on Friday.
Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is also included, but Newcastle United's Andros Townsend and Leicester City's Danny Drinkwater both miss out.
England face Portugal in their last Euro 2016 warm-up match on Thursday.
Hodgson's side begin their campaign in France by playing Russia on 11 June, before meeting Wales on 16 June and Slovakia on 20 June.
Rashford, who signed a new four-year contract with Manchester United on Monday, only made his professional debut on 25 February, but scored eight goals in 18 club games to earn an international call-up.
Sturridge, 26, missed England's last two friendly matches but did take part in a training session on Monday.
Drinkwater helped Leicester claim a shock Premier League title, while Townsend was a member of the Newcastle team relegated from the top flight.
Drinkwater said he was "disappointed" not to make the final 23 but said the season had been a "huge positive".
Hodgson initially named a 26-man squad after the final round of Premier League games, having intended to reveal his final selection on 12 May.
That was cut to 25 when Manchester City midfielder Fabian Delph was moved to the standby list after picking up an injury.
Squad:
Goalkeepers: Joe Hart (Manchester City), Fraser Forster (Southampton), Tom Heaton (Burnley).
Defenders: Gary Cahill (Chelsea), Chris Smalling (Manchester United), John Stones (Everton), Kyle Walker (Tottenham Hotspur), Ryan Bertrand (Southampton), Danny Rose (Tottenham Hotspur), Nathaniel Clyne (Liverpool).
Midfielders: Dele Alli (Tottenham Hotspur), Ross Barkley (Everton), Eric Dier (Tottenham Hotspur), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Adam Lallana (Liverpool), James Milner (Liverpool), Raheem Sterling (Manchester City), Jack Wilshere (Arsenal).
Strikers: Wayne Rooney (Manchester United), Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur), Jamie Vardy (Leicester City), Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United).

Decent squad but the defence is a disaster waiting to happen
Stones, Cahill and Smalling all make a big mistake every game

Marcus Rashford began this season on the bench for Manchester United’s Under 21 side against Rochdale in the Lancashire Senior Cup.
On Tuesday the 18-year-old was called into a meeting room at the England team hotel in Watford and told by manager Roy Hodgson that he would be going to this summer’s European Championship.
No wonder assistant coach Gary Neville was telling members of the FA staff that Hodgson’s 23-man party is the boldest England squad he has been associated with — as player or coach.
After being at the helm for two tournaments, the second of which ended after only five days and two defeats in Brazil, Hodgson has decided to abandon any thoughts of a more cautious, conservative approach and go for it in France.
Rashford was understood to be the last name on the list, forcing his way into Hodgson’s plans after scoring only 138 seconds into his stunning international debut against Australia in Sunderland last Friday.
The teenage striker from Wythenshawe, who broke into the United first team only in February, has simply proved impossible to resist.
