Midfielder Ross Barkley has been selected in Roy Hodgson’s 23-man England squad for the World Cup, with his teenage Everton team-mate John Stones named on standby.

Barkley, 20, who has three caps, is joined by Southampton trio Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana and Luke Shaw.

Manchester United’s Michael Carrick and Chelsea’s Ashley Cole have been left out of a youthful squad of 23.

England begin their World Cup campaign against Italy in Manaus on 14 June.

Liverpool defender Jon Flanagan, 21, joins Norwich goalkeeper John Ruddy, West Ham striker Andy Carroll, Toronto striker Jermain Defoe, Carrick, midfielder Tom Cleverley and defender Stones, 19, on a standby list of seven players.

Liverpool, who finished second in the Premier League, are the most represented club in the squad with five of their players in Hodgson’s 23.

West Brom goalkeeper Ben Foster has been selected alongside Celtic’s Fraser Forster as cover for number one Joe Hart. Foster, who made himself unavailable for international football between May 2011 and February 2013. has not started for his country since 2010.

Hodgson has also included Liverpool winger Raheem Sterling, 19, Reds midfielder Jordan Henderson, 23, Manchester United defender Phil Jones, 22, Arsenal’s Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, 20, and Jack Wilshere, 22, in a relatively inexperienced squad.

Chelsea’s veteran midfielder Frank Lampard, 35, has been included in the 23, with Steven Gerrard, 33, Phil Jagielka, 31, Lambert, 32, and Foster, 31, the only other over-30s in the squad.

Gunners midfielder Oxlade-Chamberlain has been picked despite not playing since 20 April because of a groin injury, while his Arsenal team-mate Wilshere has recovered from a foot injury.

There had been doubts over the fitness of Manchester United pair Wayne Rooney, 28, and Jones, 22, after their struggles with groin and shoulder injuries respectively.

Both players missed their side’s final Premier League match at Southampton, although interim United manager Ryan Giggs said theywould be fit for the World Cup and they have been selected.
