England manager Thomas Tuchel has announced his senior squad ahead of their upcoming matches against Serbia and Albania in the final round of the 2026 World Cup European qualifiers.
The English FA’s official page on platform X confirmed that Tuchel has selected a 25-man squad for the two fixtures, which begin at Wembley Stadium on Thursday, November 13, against Serbia, before the Three Lions travel to Tirana to face Albania on Sunday, November 16.
England have already secured qualification for the 2026 World Cup after a 5–0 win over Latvia, and Tuchel is now looking to finish the campaign strongly while refining his squad in the remaining matches of the year.
The squad witnessed the return of Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Phil Foden (Manchester City), Adam Wharton, and Nick Pope.
It also included a first-ever senior call-up for Alek Scott, the Bournemouth midfielder, who has impressed Tuchel with his performances this season.
Scott was also a key player for England’s U21 team, helping them win the UEFA European Under-21 Championship last summer.
