Everton keeper Pickford, 27, has been the Toffees’ No 1 stopper since leaving Sunderland in 2017.
England will now play two friendly matches at Middlesbrough’s Riverside Stadium against Austria and Romania on Wednesday, June 2 and Sunday, June 6 respectively.
Crowds will be allowed to attend both matches but tickets have sold out, with the stadium’s capacity capped at 25 per cent due to Covid-19 restrictions.
