England C boss Paul Fairclough has named a 16-man squad for next month’s game against Jordan’s U23 team in Amman.
The Three Lions are preparing for May’s International Challenge Trophy game with Slovakia, whilst their hosts are readying themselves for the qualifying stages of the 2016 Olympic Games.
And Fairclough is hoping this game can help his side continue their recent good form, after drawing with Czech Republic’s Under-21s in November.
