England Team Announces Last-Minute Changes Ahead of World Championship
In a significant alteration to the England squad for the 2026 World Championship, Newcastle United defender Valentino Liveramento has been removed from the team due to time constraints regarding training with the representative side. Chelsea’s Trevor Choloba has been called up in his place. The final day before England’s opening match against Croatia saw several replacements made.
Liveramento was initially slated as a reserve for goalkeeper Riis Jespersen, who is anticipated to start the game. The inclusion of the 23-year-old Liveramento had previously generated discussion, as he missed the final five weeks of the season following a broken bone. A new injury has now arisen, though sources indicate it is not serious.
Consequently, the England management has opted to exclude him from the World Championship roster. Thomas Thueel, the England manager, made the new call, and Choloba has been added to the squad. This represents a final adjustment to the team composition as they prepare for their opening match against Croatia.
The team is looking forward to the competition.
