England have been drawn against the hosts in this year’s Under 17 European Championship.
They were placed in Group A alongside Denmark, France and Serbia.
The draw, made at Belgrade City Hall, was conducted by Serbia senior coach Vladimir Petković and Jim Boyce, first vice-chairman of the UEFA Youth and Amateur Football Committee.
2009 Champions Germany will take on the team they met in the finals back then, Netherlands, in Group B. They will also play Czech Republic and first-time qualifiers, Romania.
