“There is no doubt about his talent and his quality, but to see him so decisively and so physically involved, he made me the impression that it was the right time to call him and give him extra pressure to stay on that level.”

Rashford did not play for England for a year, missing euros. Former Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson was also after a long absence, while Dan Burn received a maiden call at 32.

Tuchel said, “The focus is not just on the talent, not just the quality, but is what you bring to the group and how good you are.

“These players carry values ​​on their shoulders and carry their teams.”

There was no room for Conor Gallagher, Jack Gillish or James Maddison, nor did Morgan Gibbs-White, Jarrad Brathwaite and Angel Gomes.

Arsenal teenager Myles Lewis-Skelly has been put on a fast path and is completely missed in under the age of 21.

“We accelerate Myles’s career again, which is already on a fast path. He is currently a regular starter and an ordinary Arsenal player,” Tuchel said.

“He is nothing but impressive. He will now skip the younger than the age of 21, which would be a regular path for him, but because of the injury and the flexibility we want to have in our composition and because of his abilities, qualities and time of the game, he deserves to be with us.

“(Burn) has had a very impressive career and is a very solid player. He is a very solid defender and leader in the group. I talked to Dan and it was a very impressive phone call with very impressive messages that made me very comfortable in this invitation to choose a top team player who would help us build a real team.”
