England Under-21s got off to a winning start in Kazakhstan thanks to goals from Arsenal's Ethan Nwaneri and captain Jobe Bellingham. Lee Carsley's double European champions began qualification for the 2027 finals with a routine win in Almaty. Only two of the side who started the 3-2 win over Germany in June's final featured as the U21 cycle starts again but Carsley will be pleased with how his side played.

Chelsea has shown interest in signing Ethan Nwaneri, a promising 18-year-old winger currently at Arsenal, who is out of contract at the end of next season.
