England squad:
- Goalkeepers: Jordan Pickford (Everton), Nick Pope (Newcastle United), Aaron Ramsdale (Arsenal).
- Defenders: Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool), Conor Coady (Everton), Eric Dier (Tottenham Hotspur), Harry Maguire (Manchester United), Luke Shaw (Manchester United), John Stones (Manchester City), Kieran Trippier (Newcastle United), Kyle Walker (Manchester City, Ben White (Arsenal).
- Midfielders: Jude Bellingham (Borussia Dortmund), Conor Gallagher (Chelsea), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Mason Mount (Chelsea), Kalvin Phillips (Manchester City), Declan Rice (West Ham United).
- Forwards:: Phil Foden (Manchester City), Jack Grealish (Manchester City), Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur), James Maddison (Leicester City), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), Raheem Sterling (Chelsea), Callum Wilson (Newcastle United).
Most notably missing from the list is James Ward-Prowse, as Southampton’s form was not enough to earn a spot.
Others missing are Brentford’s Ivan Toni, Roma’s Tammy Abraham and Fikayo Tomori, who impressed Milan this and last season.
Chelsea defenders Ben Chilwell and Reece James also missed out on injury and the head coach opted to bring only one left-back to Qatar, Luke Shaw, betting on Kieran Trippier.
Going forward, the international coach has taken on eight strikers in his squad of 26, with Maddison and Wilson heading to Qatar thanks to their excellent Premier League form with Leicester and Newcastle United.
