Chelsea star Cole Palmer 'out in the cold' after confirmed news

Palmer has missed two consecutive England camps and faces a difficult path back into Tuchel's plans amid competition from Rogers, Gordon and Ngumoha.

Cole Palmer is struggling to regain his place in the England squad after missing the last two international camps. The Chelsea forward controversially withdrew from the September squad citing injury concerns, and has since been left out of subsequent squads for matches against Croatia and Spain.

Manager Thomas Tuchel is understood to be unhappy with Palmer's repeated absences from international duty. Sources indicate the manager feels Palmer has missed too many opportunities to impress and may have permanently lost his spot. England captain Harry Kane is also believed frustrated by players who opt against representing the Three Lions.

Palmer faces stiff competition for attacking places, with Tuchel now favouring Morgan Rogers, Anthony Gordon, Rio Ngumoha, Jude Bellingham, Eberechi Eze and Morgan Gibbs-White. With England performing well and results coming, breaking back into the squad will be difficult for the 24-year-old even if he performs well for Chelsea.
