Jobe Bellingham has been called up to the England senior squad for the first time, joining his brother Jude, while Cole Palmer misses out. Manager Thomas Tuchel cited a midfield shortage due to suspensions and injuries as the reason for Jobe's inclusion. The 21-year-old Borussia Dortmund midfielder had previously only featured for England at Under-21 level.
Cole Palmer's omission follows a pattern of missed camps, despite his strong club form with five goals in 11 appearances for Chelsea this season. Bukayo Saka is injured, and Noni Madueke and Kobbie Mainoo were not selected. Declan Rice returns after load management, and Ben White receives a recall.
Also included are Josh King and Morgan Gibbs-White. Tuchel praised Jobe's form and versatility, noting he can operate across attacking midfield roles.
