Preparation for the summer tournament will see England play France, USA and Germany.

The English fans will have the opportunity to see some of the most exciting young players in the country when the U20 take on Germany at the Manchester City Academy Stadium on Wednesday 22 March (7.30pm GMT kick-off).

The squad will then head to the Marbella Football Centre in Spain to take on the USA (Saturday 25 March) and France (Tuesday 28 March) as preparation for this summer’s tournament ramps up.

Goodman has been the first-choice keeper for Paddy McCarthy’s Under-21s this season, keeping three clean sheets in 12 games.

He can represent Canada, Nigeria and England for his international career.

 

A young goalkeeper with a clear head and directions recently opened up on how he will arrive at a decision.

 

“Whoever calls me first, I will honour the invite,” he said.
