Tuchel adds three U21 players to England training squad

Thomas Tuchel has brought three young players into the England senior training squad. Liam Delap, Adam Wharton, and Taylor Harwood-Bellis joined the session at St George’s Park. This change comes as Cole Palmer deals with an injury. Palmer is unable to participate and will stay with Chelsea for further assessment of his injury. He had a muscle problem that occurred during training before a match against Arsenal. Chelsea’s coach, Enzo Maresca, mentioned that Palmer will have a scan on Monday to determine the extent of the injury. With Palmer unable to play for the World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia, Tuchel added Morgan Gibbs-White to the team. The promotion of Delap, Wharton, and Harwood-Bellis gives them a chance to show their skills to Tuchel. Delap has been doing well at Ipswich Town, scoring ten goals this season. Wharton has improved at Crystal Palace and has already played for England once. Harwood-Bellis has also made a mark with Southampton, scoring in his debut for the national team last November.
