QPR striker Charlie Austin is in line for a first England call.
The Sunday Mirror says Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is highly unlikely to play again this season and will not be match-fit for the June 7 friendly with the Republic of Ireland in Dublin or the Euro 2016 qualifier away to Slovenia a week later.
The situation will encourage England manager Roy Hodgson to turn to Queens Park Rangers' 17-goal hitman in acknowledgement of a fantastic campaign.
The hot form of Harry Kane caused Austin to miss out on the last squad, but Tottenham man Kane will be with England Under-21s at the European Championship this time around.
