Madueke could be part of the squad, per @SamiMokbel_BBC.
I was confident I could of played a major part this summer for my country after the season I’ve had. I’ve been left shocked and gutted by the decision.
I’ve loved nothing more than putting that shirt on and representing my country over the years.
I wish the players, all the best this summer
Harry Maguire has been left OUT of the World Cup by Thomas Tuchel.
“I am SHOCKED”. ⚠️
“I was confident I could have played a major part this summer for my country after the season I’ve had”.
“I’ve been left gutted by the decision. I wish the players all the best”,
Thomas Tuchel faces several difficult decisions as he prepares to announce his 26-man England squad for the 2026 World Cup on Friday.
England head to the 2026 World Cup as one of the favourites, with the tournament final scheduled for New Jersey on July 19. But before the campaign begins, Thomas Tuchel has some genuinely difficult calls to make — and not everyone will be happy.
The biggest talking point is defence. John Stones, one of Tuchel’s originally identified leadership trio alongside Harry Kane and Declan Rice, has managed just four Premier League starts this season through injury. A fully fit Stones walks into the team. But is he fit enough?
Then there’s Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Real Madrid man wasn’t even included in March’s internationals, with Tuchel previously suggesting Jarell Quansah was ahead of him. However, injuries to Reece James and Tino Livramento may yet force the coach’s hand.
Up front, the race to back up Harry Kane is fierce. Ollie Watkins has forced his way back into contention with 11 goals in 14 games, while the evergreen Danny Welbeck — 35 and last capped in 2018 — surprisingly made Tuchel’s extended 55-man list. Dominic Calvert-Lewin has also impressed with 15 league goals for Leeds.
Perhaps the most intriguing battle is for the number 10 role. Tuchel stunned many by dropping Jude Bellingham last October, handing Morgan Rogers an extended run. Cole Palmer and Phil Foden are both anxious — Tuchel has already warned that Foden “is not guaranteed a spot on the plane.”
Those who make the cut receive a text. Those who don’t get a phone call from the manager himself — a conversation nobody wants to have.
The squad is announced Friday. The waiting, for many, is almost over.
Carrick’s Shock Return Revitalizes Man Utd!
Old Trafford’s Turnaround: Carrick’s Impact!
Michael Carrick’s shock return to Manchester United in January turned heads. Taking over from Ruben Amorim’s difficult 14-month spell, the former Middlesbrough boss inherited a club in disarray. Now, United is experiencing an astonishing resurgence under Carrick, who faced an immense challenge upon his arrival at Old Trafford. He’s proven vital to their turnaround.
Manchester City is in talks to sign exciting young winger Mathys Detourbet from Troyes. The 19-year-old French forward, part of the City Football Group, has impressed in Ligue 2 with his pace and direct style. Reports suggest a fee around €25 million could be involved, with competition from clubs like Roma and Monaco. A potential loan move to Monaco is also being considered.
Ousmane Dembélé has handed Paris Saint-Germain a huge boost ahead of the Champions League final, confirming he will be fit despite an injury scare against Paris FC.
“I had a little scare… but I’m doing ok,” Dembélé told RMC Sport. The French winger added: “I hope to be on the pitch on May 30.”
