England head coach Thomas Tuchel has dropped Trent Alexander-Arnold and called up Elliot Anderson and Djed Spence for the World Cup qualifiers against Andorra and Serbia.
However, Alexander-Arnold was part of England’s most recent squad at the end of last season, but Tuchel opted to leave him out of the September matches. The right-back quit Premier League champions Liverpool to join Spanish side Real Madrid on a free transfer in the summer.
Over the weekend, Alexander-Arnold was left out of Madrid’s starting team for last weekend’s win against Real Oviedo in favor of Dani Carvajal.
