Tuchel brings back Palmer and Alexander-Arnold with a strict warning

Squad Return

England head coach Thomas Tuchel has brought back Trent Alexander-Arnold and Cole Palmer for his first squad since the World Cup. He says the door is always open for players but warned them that they must perform on the field.

Past Omission

Tuchel previously left out Real Madrid right-back Alexander-Arnold and Chelsea forward Palmer from his team for the summer tournament in North America. That decision drew a lot of controversy at the time.

Upcoming Matches

Both players make their return for four Nations League games. These matches will take place during an extended international break that starts right after this weekend's club fixtures finish.
