It’s official…the Chelsea star has joined the England squad for the World Cup

“Chelsea” has announced the recall of one of its famous players to participate in the 2026 World Cup with the England team.

“Chelsea” says in a statement on its official website. “England technical staff have invited defender Trevo Chalobah to join the Three Lions squad for the 2026 World Cup. To compensate for the absence of Tino Livramento due to injury“.

He added: “The England manager has decided to use the services of Chalobah as a replacement for Liveramento, a former Chelsea academy graduate who has suffered a calf injury that will rule him out of the World Cup.

He continued. “FIFA regulations allow participating teams to substitute any player on the roster 24 hours before the team’s opening game in the tournament.”

He continued. “Chaloba has just one senior England cap, which he played in a friendly against Senegal almost a year ago.”

The 26-year-old defender will join his Chelsea team-mate Rhys James in the squad as England continue to prepare for their first Group 12 match against Croatia in Dallas next Wednesday.
