Mason Mount will make his first start for England in Friday’s European Qualifier against Czech Republic, Sky Sports News understands.
Mount made two substitute appearances for England last month, coming on in the second half against Bulgaria and Kosovo.
The midfielder has scored twice in four Premier League games for Chelsea since then and his performances have convinced Gareth Southgate he is ready to start for the Three Lions.
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard has repeatedly selected Mount ahead of Ross Barkley this season, and it is believed the former Everton midfielder will again make way for Mount in Prague.
England have won all four of their qualifiers for Euro 2020 and will guarantee their place at the tournament with a victory on Friday.
