Confirmed: Real Madrid duo Trent, Bellingham called up by England

Confirmed: Real Madrid duo Trent, Bellingham called up by England With the second international break of the season almost upon us, national team managers have begun announcing their squads for the upcoming matches. Real Madrid are expected to see a large number of players depart for international duty over the coming week. Vinicius Jr. and Endrick have already been called up by Brazil while Yan Diomande has been named in the Ivory Coast squad. Now, England manager Thomas Tuchel has announced the squad for their upcoming UEFA Nations League matches, with Real Madrid duo Jude Bellingham and Trent Alexander-Arnold getting called up. Bellingham has been in sublime form for Real Madrid this season and has become a permanent fixture for the national team as well. As such, his call-up was never in doubt. As for Trent, the Englishman had been frozen out by Tuchel for an extended period, but was welcomed back to the national team fold during the previous international break. While the right-back has not played consistently enough since then at Real Madrid, the Three Lions manager seems to be willing to give him an extended run in the squad. England are scheduled to play Croatia on 12 November at home before facing world champions Spain on 15 November away from home.
