The Call of England
FC Bayern Munchen winger
Jack Grealish has been named in
Stuart Pearce's 30 man preliminary squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
The 22-year-old has been enjoying a run in the Bayern first team since leaving Aston Villa in January and his performances for the German giants have encouraged Pearce to add Grealish into his preliminary squad.
It remains to be seen if the former Aston Villa man will make the final cut.
