The 21-year-old has made way for Tottenham's Harry Kane and fit-again Liverpool forward Daniel Sturridge in Roy Hodgson's squad.

Albion goalkeeper Ben Foster also misses out through injury, with no replacement called up.

Berahino was an unused substitute in England's games against Slovenia and Scotland last year.

It delayed his bid to become Albion's first outfield England international since Steve Hunt in 1984. Aston Villa midfielder Fabian Delph is included.
