Arsenal’s roster of England youth call-ups has changed in the last few days: one player has been called up, while another has withdrawn.

Since Ethan Nwaneri is listed as a part of Greg Lincoln’s u17 team, England has added another kid to their initial roster of just two called up to Arsenal for the international break.
In an effort to guarantee a place at the championship tournament in Cyprus in May, the England u17 team is competing in Euro elite-round qualifiers this week.
Nwaneri’s team will play against Northern Ireland, France, and Hungary. Placement in the top two of the group will determine eligibility for the summer tournament.

However, one young gunner had to leave overseas service because of an injury, while another was called up.
Amario Cozier-Duberry was called up to the England U19 team, but the England Football website has subsequently verified that he has withdrawn due to injury. This is the latest recent information regarding injuries at Arsenal.
Hopefully, Cozier-Duberry will return for Arsenal’s under-21 squad’s match against Stoke City on April 8.

The only other young Arsenal player selected for the England u21 squad was Brooke Norton-Cuffy. Norton-Cuffy is currently on loan from Millwall.
It’s surprising that Myles Lewis-Skelly didn’t participate at all, and Reuell Walters is merely another mistake. Given that neither has been playing football very much lately, perhaps the decision was made.
They would be expected to participate if they were regularly playing.
