Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jack Grealish have both withdrawn from the squad already this week.
Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka, Callum Wilson and Levi Colwill were all absent from training on Tuesday.
As a result, Southgate drafted in Lewis Hall, Bashir Humphreys and Alfie Devine from the under-21s.
Lee Carlsey’s Young Lions are also at St. George’s Park ahead of a Euros qualifier away to Luxembourg on Monday.
18-year-old Hall made his under-21 debut in June but did not feature as England won the Euros in July.
The versatile teenager completed a move to boyhood club Newcastle from Chelsea last month.
He had been a team-mate of Humprheys at Stamford Bridge, with the defender remaining on the Blues’ books.
Yet to be capped at under-21 level, Humphreys is currently on loan at Swansea.
