Winks left out of Under-21 squad because of recent injury
Harry Winks has been left out of the England Under-21 squad because boss Aidy Boothroyd felt the Tottenham midfielder is not yet ready to be selected following injury.
The 21-year-old has played only three minutes of competitive football since suffering ankle ligament damage against Burnley in April.[phone]

He came off the bench in the 89th minute of Spurs’ win at Newcastle and was an unused substitute against Chelsea at Wembley on Sunday.
Chelsea’s Tammy Abraham, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Kasey Palmer and Fikayo Tomori have been named in Boothroyd’s squad for the games against Netherlands and Latvia.
So too have Winks’ Tottenham team-mates Kyle Walker-Peters and Josh Onomah.
