England World Cup squad LIVE: Foden, Maguire and Palmer left out ahead of Tuchel confirmation – UK Times

Levi Colwill has had a season inflicted by injury but has been available for Chelsea’s last two matches.

He had hoped to force his way into the squad in the final stages of the season but it looks unlikely to be enough time for the defender.

With Colwill, Maguire and Tomori all set to miss out it seems as though Man City’s John Stones may get a call up as cover.

Also rumoured to be left out is Newcastle’s Lewis Hall which would lend credence to the rumour that Myles Lewis-Skelly might have made it.

Jarrod Bowen is reportedly out of the squad according to TalkSport’s Alex Crook.

And, there are mumurings that Ollie Watkins, fresh off a win in the Europa League with Aston Villa, hasn’t made.

These are just rumours of course and could be wide of the mark.

There could be a place for Myles Lewis-Skelly according to The Independent’s Miguel Delaney who says that Tuchel is considering recalling him.

In another surprise, Ivan Toney has made the squad and will be a back up to Harry Kane.

Toney, who plays for Saudi Arabian side Al Ahli, was not expected to make the squad having only been called up for England’s international last summer.

Once Thomas Tuchel names his squad tomorrow morning, the World Cup preparations will begin.

England warm-up for the tournament with friendlies against New Zealand and Costa Rica.

They then start their World Cup campaign against Croatia on 17 June, before further group games against Ghana and Panama.

Other than Harry Maguire, the players we think have been left out of the squad are only rumoured.

Maguire himself confirmed his omission but we may have to wait until tomorrow morning to be sure of the rest of the squad.

That said, Cole Palmer and Adam Wharton – two heavily influential midfielders – are also being tipped to have been left out.

TalkSport report that Wharton has been told of his omission while The Athletic say Palmer is out.

This rumour comes from TalkSport again, backed up by BBC reporting, which says that Manchester City’s Phil Foden will not make the squad.

Foden was selected in Tuchel’s March squads. He has played 49 times for England but started only 22 Premier League games for City this season

He has scored seven goals and made five assists in 32 top-flight appearances.

With competition high for Foden’s preferred No. 10 positions it seems the Man City midfielder has not done enough to impress Tuchel.
