Sunderland goalkeeper Jordan Pickford has been called up to the England squad in place of the injured Tom Heaton.

Burnley's Heaton left the England camp on Sunday after picking up a "minor injury", and Pickford has been drafted in as a replacement for Tuesday's World Cup qualifier against Slovenia.

The 22-year-old, who had been due to report for Under-21s duty ahead of their match against Bosnia & Herzegovina, will now link up with the senior squad for the first time in his career.

Pickford has started Sunderland's last six matches in all competitions after Vito Mannone was ruled out until at least December with an arm injury.

Arsenal full-back Kieran Gibbs has also reported to the squad having replaced the injured Ryan Bertrand.
