Additional England-based Inclusions
- Spurs midfielder the young talent, currently rehabilitating from concussion
- Magpies winger Anthony Elanga
These players feature in Potter's Premier League players named by ex- Brighton, Chelsea and West Ham coach the new Swedish coach
Potter's Appointment
Potter was named the Swedish federation originally for an interim period in late October, under four weeks after leaving from West Ham
Former manager the Danish coach was fired following Sweden's defeat against the Kosovan team in mid-October, an outcome which rendered direct progression from Group B out of reach
Present Standing
Sweden find themselves bottom in their qualifying group with just a single point in their opening four games
Should they fail to secure second place, there remains a chance they might participate in the secondary qualification because of their performance during the previous Nations League
