Arsenal youngster Jack Wilshere has been called into the England Under-21 squad for the friendly against the Netherlands in Groningen on Tuesday.
The 17-year-old midfielder has been promoted from the Under-20s by coach Stuart Pearce following an injury to Bolton midfielder Fabrice Muamba.
Wilshere is seen as a possible member of the senior squad for the World Cup in South Africa next year, with boss Fabio Capello looking to monitor his progress this season.
