Trevoh Chalobah Expected to Replace Guehi in Three Lions Squad

The Chelsea defender is likely to link up with the England squad to fill in for injured Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi.

The 26-year-old is due to link up with the team for England's remaining World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Serbia, although it has not yet been confirmed.

The England team have already secured qualification for the upcoming tournament.

Chalobah earned his maiden selection under England manager Thomas Tuchel in the month of May and then played his first game against Senegal.

In the month of September, Tuchel said Chalobah was unlucky to be omitted from the squad for qualifiers against Serbia and Andorra, and additionally didn't call him up for the following October fixtures.

Tuchel has been an important figure in Chalobah's development, having handed him his Chelsea first-team bow in 2021.

Chalobah has featured in almost every fixtures for Chelsea this season, with the club in third place in the Premier League, in the EFL Cup last eight and in the group stage of the European competition.

Guehi sustained a injury to his foot in Crystal Palace's Conference League victory over the Dutch side last week.

There are set to be other inclusions to the selection. Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has confirmed that both attacker Anthony Gordon (hip injury) and shot-stopper Nick Pope (a concussion) will be unavailable from the squad.
