Thomas Tuchel brings back Trent Alexander-Arnold and Cole Palmer in a 27-man squad that includes three uncapped players and four matches.

  • On Friday, England manager Thomas Tuchel announced a 27-man squad for the Nations League, recalling Trent Alexander-Arnold and Cole Palmer after both were omitted from the World Cup roster.
  • Tuchel had previously excluded Alexander-Arnold and Palmer from the tournament team, which reached the semi-finals before losing to Argentina. Their recall marks a significant shift in selection strategy.
  • The 27-man group includes newcomers Rio Ngumoha, Alex Scott, and Jarrad Branthwaite alongside recalled players Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Lewis Hall, and Myles Lewis-Skelly. The camp begins nine weeks after the World Cup concluded.
