Newcastle United winger Harvey Barnes will not be switching allegiance to Scotland before the World Cup, head coach Steve Clarke has confirmed. The 28-year-old, who has one England cap from a friendly against Wales in October 2020, is eligible for Scotland through his maternal grandparents. However, Clarke revealed Barnes has turned down the opportunity to play for a place in his squad.

Likewise, with the 2026 World Cup fast approaching on the horizon, many of England's biggest superstars are looking to shore up their spot in Thomas Tuchel 's squad to North America.

Uncapped Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has been left out of the England squad to face Serbia in a World Cup qualifier at Wembley on Thursday.

We don't think it is a serious injury but we are getting him scanned and waiting on the result. I think there is every chance he might miss our game on Sunday but we will give him every opportunity to be fit. I feel relaxed about him being with England. It will all be done with England's blessing in terms of whether he is fit or not fit. We will work together to find the best solutions for Anthony.

He scores goals, he works hard, he's having a purple patch and he's put himself in a position where Thomas Tuchel will definitely have to look at him," Rooney said on the latest episode of his podcast The Wayne Rooney Show.

Manchester City defender Nico O'Reilly was today added to the England squad for the upcoming doubleheader against Wales and Latvia. It is a first senior call-up for the 20-year-old, who moves up from the Under-21s, for the friendly with Wales on Thursday and the World Cup qualifier in Riga five days later. O'Reilly replaces Reece James in the squad after the Chelsea defender sustained an injury in his side's 2-1 defeat of Liverpool on Saturday evening.

Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden and Jack Grealish have been left out of England's squad for their October 2025 fixtures. Real Madrid forward Bellingham returned for the La Liga club at the end of September following shoulder surgery, while midfielders Foden and Grealish have not regained their places despite promising form for Manchester City and Everton in the Premier League. Bukayo Saka has been recalled following the Arsenal forward's recovery from a hamstring injury.

Tottenham full-back Djed Spence and Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson have received their first senior England call-ups in Thomas Tuchel's squad for the Three Lions' World Cup qualifiers in September. Trent Alexander-Arnold, who left Liverpool for Real Madrid in the summer, has been left out after featuring in Tuchel's previous squad. Alexander-Arnold was not in the starting line-up for Madrid's 3-0 LaLiga win at Real Oviedo on Sunday. England host Andorra at Villa Park on September 6 and visit Serbia three days later.
