Charlton defender Luke Young has been called up for England's Euro 2008 qualifiers with Israel and Andorra.

The 27-year-old full-back, who has won seven caps, joins the squad after Manchester City's Micah Richards underwent tests on a calf injury yesterday.

England play Israel in Tel Aviv on Saturday before travelling to Barcelona to face Andorra the following Wednesday.

Young's last appearance for his country came in the thrilling 3-2 win over Argentina in Geneva in November 2005.
