England's interim boss Lee Carsley has told Thomas Tuchel that he will face a tough job picking his squad from the pool of players available.

Lee Carsley admitted his relief at rounding off his interim England tenure with Nations League promotion and says he plans to meet Thomas Tuchel “in the next few weeks” to start the handover process.

Two of the first names on the team sheet for Tuchel will be Jude Bellingham of Real Madrid and Arsenal lynchpin Declan Rice. The engine room duo boasts the perfect concoction of the exuberance of youth and experience at the highest level of football – both domestically and from an international point of view.
