Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden are back in the England squad for this international break, while a Bournemouth star has been given his first call-up.<\/p>\n
The final international break of 2025 starts next week as England<\/strong><\/a>, who have already qualified for next summer\u2019s World Cup, have their final qualifiers against Serbia (home, November 13) and Albania (away, November 16).<\/p>\n England head coach Thomas Tuchel<\/strong> <\/a>has not been afraid to make bold decisions when selecting his previous squads, as he notably left Bellingham out of last month\u2019s squad following his return from injury.<\/p>\n However, Bellingham<\/strong> <\/a>has impressed for Real Madrid in their recent matches, so it\u2019s hardly a surprise that he is back in the England squad for this month\u2019s international break.<\/p>\n Tuchel has also recalled Manchester City star Phil Foden, while Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Myles Lewis-Skelly are notable absentees who have been omitted after featuring for The Three Lions last month.<\/p>\n READ:\u00a0You\u2019ve made your point, Thomas Tuchel; now pick a proper England squad<\/a> The England boss has also called up Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton, while Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has been awarded his first call-up.<\/p>\n The full England squad for November\u2019s international break is as follows:<\/p>\n Goalkeepers: Henderson, Pickford, Pope.<\/p>\n Defenders: Burn, Guehi, James, Konsa, O\u2019Reilly, Quansah, Spence, Stones.<\/p>\n Midfielders: Anderson, Bellingham, Henderson, Rice, Rogers, Scott, Wharton.<\/p>\n Forwards: Bowen, Eze, Foden, Gordon, Kane, Rashford, Saka.<\/p>\n MORE ENGLAND COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 It remains to be seen whether Newcastle star Anthony Gordon will remain in England\u2019s squad as he was forced off with an injury during his side\u2019s 2-0 win against Athletic Bilbao in midweek.<\/p>\n Speaking about Gordon on Friday morning, Newcastle boss Eddie Howe said:\u00a0\u201cWe don\u2019t think it\u2019s a serious injury but we\u2019re going to get him scanned and we\u2019re awaiting the results.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s every chance he might miss out on Sunday but we\u2019ll give him every chance to be involved.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re relaxed about that. IT will be done with England\u2019s blessing if he\u2019s fit or not fit, we\u2019ll work together with them to find the right solution.\u201d<\/p>\n Sky Sports reporter Peter Smith, meanwhile, has explained why he thinks this squad proves that Tuchel has a \u201cstriker problem\u201d.<\/p>\n He said:\u00a0\u201cSo many intriguing storylines to pick apart from this England squad announcement but amid the rotation of midfield options or No10 alternatives, one thing that jumps out at me is the strikers.<\/p>\n \u201cOr, that should be striker. Because it\u2019s only Harry Kane.<\/p>\n \u201cNo Danny Welbeck but more eye-catching \u2013 no Ollie Watkins. He is struggling for form but his absence is significant.<\/p>\n \u201cMarcus Rashford has of course been used as a No9 in the past but it\u2019s pretty clear he\u2019s better from the left and that\u2019s where he\u2019s thriving for Barcelona.<\/p>\n \u201cIvan Toney seems to have not impressed Tuchel when he was in previous camps, while Dominic Solanke\u2019s injury issues are limiting his prospects.<\/p>\n \u201cLiam Delap has just returned from injury for Chelsea \u2013 and was swiftly sent off at Wolves \u2013 and I suspect he will be a long-term option.<\/p>\n \u201cBut right now, the cupboard looks pretty bare in regards to the centre forward position for England. A lot resting on Kane staying fit and in form.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jude Bellingham and Phil Foden are back in the England squad for this international break, while a Bournemouth…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":167849,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[76],"tags":[18,4507,794,19,17,53359,5,43825,795,132,25142],"class_list":{"0":"post-167848","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-eire","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-home-page","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland","13":"tag-jude-bellingham","14":"tag-news","15":"tag-phil-foden","16":"tag-premier-league","17":"tag-sports","18":"tag-thomas-tuchel"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167848","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=167848"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167848\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/167849"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=167848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=167848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=167848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
