England manager Thomas Tuchel has announced the squad for the upcoming UEFA Nations League matches, making the controversial decision to leave Chelsea leader Cole Palmer out of the lineup.

Details: The unexpected omission of the 24-year-old midfielder, who has been playing a leading role at club level, has caused a huge stir across the country. The German coach has opted for a major youth movement, calling up several exciting debutants and handing international opportunities to Jobe Bellingham, Myles Lewis-Skelly and 18-year-old winger Rio Ngumoha.

The full list of players called up to represent England in the November fixtures is as follows:

  • Goalkeepers: Jordan Pickford, Jason Steele, James Trafford.
  • Defenders: Jarrad Branthwaite, Marc Guéhi, Lewis Hall, Ezri Konsa, Jarell Quansah, Djed Spence, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ben White.
  • Midfielders: Elliot Anderson, Jude Bellingham, Eberechi Eze, James Garner, Jobe Bellingham, Josh King, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Declan Rice.
  • Forwards: Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Morgan Gibbs-White, Anthony Gordon, Harry Kane, Rio Ngumoha, Morgan Rogers.

It is worth noting that England are battling for top spot in their Nations League group, while Thomas Tuchel is using the autumn stage of the tournament to build the core of his team ahead of future World Cup qualifying battles.
