Thomas Tuchel has been criticised by Harry Maguire\u2019s mum after the Manchester United centre-back was left out of the England squad for the World Cup.<\/p>\n
The 26-man squad will officially be announced later on Friday as Tuchel reveals who will join him on the plane to the tournament in the USA, Canada and Mexico.<\/p>\n
Most of the England<\/strong> squad was gradually dripped out on Thursday evening<\/strong> with Ben Jacobs, Sami Mokbel and David Ornstein among the journalists revealing names who would and wouldn\u2019t make the squad.<\/p>\n The first name revealed to be missing out was Man Utd centre-back Maguire, despite his good recent form for Michael Carrick\u2019s side, with Jarell Quansah and Dan Burn seemingly ahead of him in the pecking order for England.<\/p>\n Reacting to the decision to leave him out, Maguire said<\/strong>: \u201cI was confident I could have played a major part this summer for my country after the season I\u2019ve had.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve been left shocked and gutted by the decision. I wish the players all the best.\u201d<\/p>\n READ: 2026 World Cup Power Rankings as final 48 heading to North America confirmed<\/strong><\/p>\n The former Sheffield United and Hull City defender\u2019s mum also took to social media to react to the decision, she wrote on X:\u00a0\u201cAbsolutely disgusted.\u201d<\/p>\n While Maguire\u2019s brother, Joe, also had his say, he added:\u00a0\u201cThis might possibly be the worst decision I\u2019ve ever seen in my life.
