Southampton goalkeeper Fraser Forster has been called up to the England squad following the withdrawal of West Brom's Sam Johnstone.

Forster, 34, won the last of his six England caps in 2016.

Gareth Southgate's side host Switzerland on Saturday before taking on Ivory Coast on Tuesday with both friendly games at Wembley.

Forster joins Southampton team-mates James Ward-Prowse and Kyle Walker-Peters in the squad.
