Marcus Rashford, Myles Lewis-Skelly, and Jordan Henderson have been selected for the first England team under the management of Thomas Tuchel.

In a significant move for the England national team, Marcus Rashford has been recalled to the squad by new head coach Thomas Tuchel. The 27-year-old forward has not donned the Three Lions jersey since England’s disappointing defeat to Brazil at Wembley back in March 2024.

Rashford’s resurgence comes on the back of a successful loan spell at Aston Villa, where he has revitalized his form since leaving Manchester United in the January transfer window. In just nine appearances for Villa, he has notched up four assists and has been a persistent threat in attack. His contributions have been pivotal in helping the club advance to the quarter-finals of both the UEFA Champions League and the FA Cup.

In addition to Rashford’s return, Tuchel has also handed a first senior call-up to Arsenal’s promising teenager Myles Lewis-Skelly for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia. The inclusion of Lewis-Skelly highlights Tuchel’s commitment to integrating fresh talent into the squad.

Former captain Jordan Henderson has also been recalled, while Newcastle United defender Dan Burn receives his first call-up to the national side. However, there was no place for Manchester City’s Jack Grealish, a notable omission that will raise eyebrows among fans and pundits alike.

The full England squad for the qualifiers is as follows:
