Foden and Palmer Expected to Miss England World Cup Squad

Reports indicate that Phil Foden of Manchester City and Cole Palmer of Chelsea are among the high-profile players expected to be excluded from Thomas Tuchel's England squad for the World Cup. This decision comes after both players had disappointing seasons with their clubs.

Other notable omissions include Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White and Leeds striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, despite being among the top English scorers in the Premier League this season. In contrast, veteran Brentford midfielder Jordan Henderson is anticipated to be included in the squad.

Additionally, Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton and Manchester United defender Harry Maguire are also mentioned, with Maguire expressing shock over his potential exclusion from the squad. The final squad selection is crucial as it precedes the Euro 2024 finals, where England aims to perform strongly.
