"Jude Bellingham has said he would love to return to the England squad for the World Cup qualifiers next week but added that selection is out of his hands. The Real Madrid midfielder was left out of the England squad for last month's qualifiers against Latvia and Wales, with Tuchel referencing his lack of game time following shoulder surgery as the reason for his exclusion. The injury had kept him out of the England's two September qualifiers as well, with his last appearance for England coming in the loss to Senegal in June."
"'It's not my call,' Bellingham said in an interview to Amazon Prime, when asked if he will be selected. 'I think you know whose call it is.' 'I would love to be [picked] but it's not my call. I'll be waiting to see.' England have already sealed their place at next year's World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada."
Jude Bellingham said he would love to return to the England squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers but emphasized that selection is not his decision. He was omitted from last month's squad for qualifiers against Latvia and Wales due to limited game time following shoulder surgery. The injury also ruled him out of England's two September qualifiers, with his last England appearance in the June loss to Senegal. Tension with manager Thomas Tuchel surfaced after that match when Tuchel labelled Bellingham's on-field behaviour "repulsive", a remark Tuchel later apologised for. England have already qualified for next year's World Cup.
