England announced its final list for the next September camp in preparation for the confrontations of Andorra and Serbia in the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, where the list witnessed a big surprise by excluding Alexander Arnold, Real Madrid player despite his recent participation with his team.
The most prominent features of the England list
The list included three goalkeepers James Trafford from Manchester City, Gordon Picford, Everton goalkeeper, and Din Henderson, Crystal Palace. The defense line witnessed the presence of prominent names such as John Stones from Manchester City, Reese James from Chelsea, and Newcastle player Dan Bern, in addition to Ezri Konsa, Louis Kelly, Spinnes, Lavrino and Mark Joyahi.
Who are the most prominent midfielders?
In the middle of the field, Arsenal player Diklan Rice and Jurdan Henderson from Brentford were chosen, along with Morgan Gibbs White and Anderson from Nutingham Forest, in addition to Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa, Adam and Erton from Crystal Palace.
The attack led by Harry Kane
The offensive squad was strong, led by Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane, alongside Barcelona’s Marcus Rashford, and Olayquins from Aston Villa, as well as Anthony Gordon from Newcastle and Jarude Bowen from West Ham, with Easy and Noni Madoyki from Arsenal.
Why was Alexander Arnold excluded?
The absence of Alexander Arnold raised many questions, especially as he participated with Real Madrid in the Club World Cup and also appeared in the first two games in the Spanish league this season. Despite his physical and technical readiness, England’s technical staff decided to exclude him from the current list.
