"Ruben Loftus-Cheek has been added to Thomas Tuchel's England squad for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Andorra and Serbia. Loftus-Cheek, who has made 10 appearances for England since his debut eight years ago, returns to the Three Lions set-up for the first time since November 2018. The AC Milan midfielder comes into the now 25-man party to replace Adam Wharton, who sustained a groin injury in Crystal Palace's 3-0 win against Aston Villa on Sunday."
"Loftus-Cheek's recall sees him reunite with Tuchel, having played under the German between 2021 and 2022 at Chelsea before the midfielder moved to Milan two years ago. The 29-year-old has played 71 times for the Serie A giants across all competitions, scoring 11 goals and providing two assists in that time. He was on target in Milan's 2-0 win over Lecce last weekend, helping Massimiliano Allegri to his first league win since returning to the Rossoneri dugout."
"Jarell Quansah has also been called up, with the former Liverpool defender now plying his trade in the Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen following his summer switch. Quansah was also part of Tuchel's first England squad in March that faced Albania and Latvia in the World Cup qualifiers, but he is yet to win his first senior cap.
