It's squad announcement day for England, and anticipation is high as Thomas Tuchel prepares to reveal his final list for 2025. The England manager will confirm his selections at 10:00 AM BST on Friday, November 7, ahead of World Cup qualifiers against Serbia and Albania, as shared on their official X account . This will be the last call-up before the 2026 FIFA World Cup, following England's perfect qualifying campaign , as reported by SoftFootball .
Jude Bellingham is widely expected to return after missing the October squad despite being named England's 2024/25 Player of the Year. Now fully fit with Real Madrid after shoulder surgery, he looks set to be reinstated. However, the big question surrounds Phil Foden. The Manchester City playmaker has hit top form again, scoring twice in a 4-1 win over Borussia Dortmund , but it remains uncertain whether Tuchel will hand him a recall.
Tuchel defended his earlier squad choices, explaining he wanted to maintain rhythm and build habits following the 5-0 victory over Serbia. With England's place at next summer's tournament already secured, Tuchel now turns his attention to shaping his best XI. Jack Grealish could miss out again despite decent club form, while Trent Alexander-Arnold and Adam Wharton are both expected to return from injury.
