Gareth Southgate will make 10 changes for England's clash with Italy at Wembley on Tuesday night, according to reports.
The Three Lions rotated their side for Friday's narrow 1-0 victory over Australia, with Ollie Watkins scoring the only goal of the game.
And The Sun say England will reshuffle their ranks once again for the match with Italy on Tuesday.
Out of the XI that started against the Aussies, only Jordan Henderson will keep his place.

The midfielder has been widely criticised after leaving Liverpool for Saudi Arabian side Al-Ettifaq back in the summer.
Henderson moved to the Middle East, where homosexuality is illegal, having long been an ally of the LGBTQ+ community.
The 33-year-old has drowned out the criticism that has surrounded him after being booed during the victory over Australia on Friday.
Southgate has also defended the England star, condemning the reception he received from supporters.
And it seems Henderson will keep his place with the veteran poised to play a big part in the game.
Harry Maguire is another player who has been jeered by fans in recent times.
But despite struggling for Manchester United this season, the defender will reportedly start the match against Italy.
Jordan Pickford, John Stones, Kyle Walker and Kieran Trippier will make up the rest of England's back five.
In midfield, Henderson is poised to partner up with Declan Rice - with Jude Bellingham then playing further ahead of the pair in the No 10 position.
Phil Foden and Marcus Rashford are supposedly set to be deployed out wide.
And Harry Kane will lead the line, with the striker hoping to continue his excellent start to the season.
The forward left Tottenham for Bayern Munich back in August after spending his entire career in north London.
And he's not looked back in the time since, with Kane netting nine goals from his first 10 outings in Germany.
Speaking last week, the 30-year-old insisted he didn't regret leaving Tottenham - despite the club enjoying a terrific start to the season.
“I was there for so long and all my friends are still there, even the coaches and staff, so sometimes it's a little bit strange," he said.
“But in football and life, when you go onto a new adventure, you're focused and attention is on that.
“I'm trying to find houses, learn the language, get to know my new team and staff at Bayern Munich.
"Your attention just gets taken away. Maybe at first it was strange to see them playing and me not being there.
"I have got to put all my attention on Bayern Munich and to make us as successful as possible.
“I am here, I am excited and it will always be a decision I never regret. I’m proud to have started the way I have.”

And Kane also admitted he was hoping to be involved when England, along with the other home nations and the Republic of Ireland, host Euro 2028 in five years' time.
“Hopefully. I am aiming to still be around by then," added the England skipper.
“It is still a few years away, but I am a player who, at the moment, feels as good as I have ever felt and, yes, I would like to think my career will go to my late thirties - at least.
"As we know, in football a lot of things can change quickly, but at the moment I feel really good.
"If you ask me now, of course I hope I am there and it means I am still performing at a high level, but you never know. We will see.”
