England v Slovenia team news
Sunderland’s Dennis Cirkin, Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton and Tottenham Hotspur’s Dane Scarlett have not joined England at the tournament because of medical issues.
Carsley may be tempted to shuffle his forward line, with Arsenal sensation Ethan Nwaneri proving an immediate threat as a late substitute against Czechia.
Marcel Ratnick is not involved for Slovenia because the centre-back joined UAE club Al-Ain this month and is playing at the Fifa Club World Cup.
Striker Nejc Gradisar is also at the tournament in the US, coming on as a 79th-minute substitute for Al-Ahly as the Egyptian team drew the opening game 0-0 with Inter Miami.
