Palmer and Alexander-Arnold recalled after England World Cup snub
Cole Palmer and Trent Alexander-Arnold back for Thomas Tuchel in Nations League, but still no place for Phil Foden.
England head coach Thomas Tuchel has recalled Trent Alexander-Arnold and Cole Palmer for the national team, following their omission from the World Cup squad. Both players are set to feature in upcoming Nation's League matches after their club games. Alexander-Arnold, 27, has earned 34 caps for England and made a substitute appearance in a recent win against Andorra.
Palmer, 24, scored four goals and provided two assists in six recent games. Tuchel emphasized that the door is always open for players, but they must perform to earn a place in the squad. He believes Alexander-Arnold has a chance to prove himself and showed his versatility by playing in midfield during Real Madrid's Champions League win.
Palmer, who had previously played for England, is expected to bring his goal-scoring and assisting abilities to the team. The announcement comes as England prepares to face Spain, Czech Republic, and Croatia in the coming weeks.
