Europe2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported19m ago
Manager Thomas Tuchel has named his first England squad since the World Cup, highlighted by the recalls of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Cole Palmer. Alexander-Arnold, now playing for Real Madrid after leaving Liverpool, returns to the national setup for the first time since June 2025 following his omission from the World Cup squad alongside Palmer.
In addition to the returning players, Tuchel has included Liverpool winger Rio Ngumoha and Alex Scott in the squad for the upcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures. However, the selection notably omits Phil Foden, while Hall, Lewis-Skelly, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have also been selected.
