LONDON (ENGLAND) (ITALPRESS) – Although he was somewhat surprisingly left off the World Cup squad list, Cole Palmer had been called up for the upcoming Nations League fixtures; however, he will now have to postpone his debut with the England national team. According to BBC Sport, the Chelsea player is dealing with an injury that, while minor, will prevent him from joining the Three Lions squad. Thomas Tuchel is expected to call up Morgan Gibbs-White in his place; Gibbs-White also missed out on the World Cup but has enjoyed a strong start to the season with Nottingham Forest. Regarding the double-header against the Czech Republic and the matches against Spain and Croatia, the fitness of Manchester United duo Marcus Rashford and Kobbie Mainoo—both substituted late in the game against Fulham—will also need to be assessed. If Mainoo is unable to make it, Everton midfielder James Garner could step in.
