Palmer left out of England squad as Jobe and King called up

Thomas Tuchel has left Cole Palmer out of the England squad, along with Phil Foden and Kobbie Mainoo, but Jude Bellingham’s brother Jobe and Fulham midfielder Josh King have earned their first senior call-ups.

Chelsea's Palmer was hugely disappointed when he was overlooked for the World Cup in the summer after a stop-start season due to injury, and he withdrew from the last England camp in September and October because of a minor fitness issue, but he has been back to his best this season with five goals and three assists in 11 appearances.
