Harry Maguire Opens up on England World Cup Snub by Thomas Tuchel
- Manchester United centre-back Harry Maguire was excluded from England's 26-man World Cup squad by manager Thomas Tuchel, a decision Maguire said surprised him given his form.
- Tuchel delivered the omission via an awkward FaceTime call, with media reports surfacing about Maguire's status roughly half an hour before the manager officially contacted him.

- Following Newcastle full-back Tino Livramento's injury, Tuchel reportedly plans to call up Chelsea centre-back Trevoh Chalobah, leaving Maguire overlooked once more.
- Now 33, Maguire acknowledged that at 37 for the next World Cup, opportunities look "far away," though he insisted he remained a big personality capable of contributing.
