ARSENAL whizkid Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain could receive a late England call-up this week.
The midfielder, 18, was in Fabio Capello's provisional squad as well as the Under-21s.
Despite suffering back spasms over the weekend, he remains with Stuart Pearce's Young Lions for their Euro qualifier against Iceland at Colchester on Thursday.
And Oxlade-Chamberlain could still earn a promotion to the seniors if Capello is hit by injury withdrawals ahead of the senior friendlies with Spain and Sweden.
Three Lions boss Capello may give keepers David Stockdale and Scott Carson game time in the Wembley double-header.
Ipswich loanee Stockdale, 26, is uncapped while Bursa-spor stopper Carson has not played since a blunder against Germany three years ago.
The FA have sold only around 45,000 tickets for next Tuesday's Sweden clash but Saturday's showdown with Spain is a sell-out.
