The Blues manager says his right-back will not be joining up with the Three Lions squad as he is still training in a swimming pool at present
Thomas Tuchel has laughed off Reece James’ surprise inclusion in the latest England squad, with the Chelsea boss joking that he thought the right-back had been selected for water polo duty as he is still training in a swimming pool at present.
The 21-year-old defender, who has eight senior caps to his name, was included in Gareth Southgate’s latest selection for World Cup qualifiers against Andorra and Hungary despite picking up an ankle injury on his last Premier League outing against Manchester City.
