Roy Hodgson has said that he does not think there will be a problem with players dropping out of friendlies for England later this year.
The Three Lions have fixtures against the Republic of Ireland and Brazil in May and June respectively, just weeks after the domestic season finishes.
The England manager told Sky Sports News: "I've now got six or seven weeks to concern myself with who plays against Ireland and who goes to Brazil. These are two bona fide matches and a lot of other teams in this period are playing qualifying games.
"So I don't think I need have any worries as to whether the players I select will come and play for England. They're aware we need to prepare well for the autumn internationals.
"May and June are FIFA dates. When there are FIFA dates, the first call on the players is for the international teams."
The matches also clash with a trip to the USA for Chelsea and Manchester City.
