Forest defender Lascelles promoted to England squad

Nottingham Forest defender Jamaal Lascelles is training with the senior England squad this week.

The Evening Chronicle says Lascelles was called into the senior group at England's St George's Park training base to help Roy Hodgson's preparations for the Euro 2016 qualification double-header.

On-loan from Newcastle United, Forest's form has been so good that Lacelles is yet to make a single league start for Stuart Pearce's side - although he did play nearly 70 minutes of Sunday's draw with Ipswich after replacing the ill Kelvin Wilson.
