Phil Foden and Cole Palmer will miss out on England’s World Cup squad, according to BBC Sport’s Sami Mokbel.
England head coach Thomas Tuchel will name his final 26-man squad Friday. Manchester United’s Luke Shaw, Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White, Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton, Chelsea’s Levi Colwill, and AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori are also expected to be left out, Mokbel adds.
Al-Ahli’s Ivan Toney, who’s made just one brief substitute appearance for England since Euro 2024, is a surprise inclusion, according to The Telegraph’s Mike McGrath, Matt Law, and Jason Burt. He will join Harry Kane and Ollie Watkins as England’s strikers at the tournament, Mokbel reports.
