Jude Bellingham Omitted from Latest England Squad
England manager Thomas Tuchel has left star midfielder Jude Bellingham out of his squad for the upcoming matches against Wales and Latvia. Bellingham, who was just named England Men's Player of the Year, missed the previous camp in September after shoulder surgery but has since returned to play for Real Madrid. Despite being fit, he was not included in the 24-man lineup. Tuchel explained his decision, stating he wanted to keep faith with the group that secured two wins last month. "It was only three weeks since the last camp... so the question was why not bring the same group in because they set the standard," he said. The squad sees the return of Arsenal's Bukayo Saka from injury. However, players like Cole Palmer, Phil Foden, and the injured Trent Alexander-Arnold were again not selected.
