Manager Thomas Tuchel has named a 25-man squad for England’s Nations League games against Czechia and Spain this month. Manchester City’s Phil Foden, Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, Arsenal’s Noni Madueke and Manchester United’s Kobbie Mainoo are among the biggest omissions.
Palmer was called up for the last camp, but withdrew due to injury. Tuchel described his absence ‘a missed opportunity’. Foden has not represented England since March 2026, while Madueke has been left out for the second consecutive time after playing at the 2026 World Cup.
The winger has been a regular for Arsenal in recent weeks following Bukayo Saka’s injury, but he has not done enough to earn a recall.
