Tuchel drops three from England squad to face Albania

England head coach Thomas Tuchel has left Morgan Gibbs-White, Jarrell Quansah and Aaron Ramsdale out of his matchday squad for Friday's World Cup qualifier against Albania at Wembley.

Nottingham Forest midfielder Gibbs-White was not included by Tuchel's original squad but was called up when Chelsea's Cole Palmer pulled out.

Uefa rules state that a manager can only select 23 players in his squad for a fixture.

Tuchel selected 26 players for the games versus Albania and Latvia, meaning he had to cut three for each game.

Gibbs-White, Liverpool defender Quansah and Southampton goalkeeper Ramsdale are the three to have missed out for Tuchel's first match in charge.
