Tuchel names England squad for Croatia and Spain tests as Jobe Bellingham earns first call-up

Thomas Tuchel has named his England squad for November's UEFA Nations League fixtures against Croatia and Spain.

England conclude their Nations League campaign with an international double-header this month, taking on Croatia on Thursday November 12th at Wembley, before facing world champions Spain at the Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid on Sunday November 15th.

Tuchel has named Borussia Dortmund's Jobe Bellingham, younger brother of Jude, in the senior squad for the first time. There's also a first inclusion for Fulham teenager Josh King, who trained with the squad ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

There's no place in the squad for Cole Palmer, with Tuchel previously critical of the Chelsea midfielder for missing two many squads. Trent Alexander-Arnold retains his place despite a alck of minutes at Real Madrid.

Harry Kane, fresh from winning the 2026 Ballon d'Or and signing a new contract at Bayern Munich, is set to become England's record appearance maker if he features across the two games. Kane equalled Peter Shilton's 125-cap record during the last international break.
