Hill gets first England call-up as Konsa cover

The 24-year-old centre-back has been added to Thomas Tuchel's squad after Arsenal's Ezri Konsa was ruled out of Thursday's Nations League match against Croatia at Wembley. Konsa was substituted after sustaining a knee injury in the Champions League win at Slavia Prague on Wednesday, but played all 90 minutes of the win over Hull on Saturday.

Hill has played every minute of Bournemouth's Premier League season and has featured in every game of their inaugural Europa League campaign. Having made only 24 appearances in his first three and a half years with the club, Hill became a regular last season as Bournemouth achieved their highest top-flight finish of sixth.
