Danny Welbeck named in the 55-man list |
England Football World Cup
·
Danny Welbeck's England exile is over with the
Brighton striker allegedly one of 55 names comprised in Gareth Southgate's
provisional World Cup party.
·
According to The Athletic, the Brighton and
Hove Albion striker was named on the long list Gareth Southgate had to succumb
to FIFA.
·
Welbeck has been covered 42 times by his republic
and has scored 16 goals, but hasn't featured for the Three Lions since a
1-0 friendly win over Switzerland on September 11, 2018, at the King Power
Stadium.
·
Brighton is liking a fine season in the Premier
League but Welbeck, 31, is yet to score this season in 11 arrivals for the
Seagulls.
·
Eberechi Eze, James Maddison and Callum
Wilson are also among the strangers still in contention to be designated
in England Football World Cup squad.
·
Gareth Southgate selects his 26-man party
for Qatar next Thursday but there aren't predicted to be too many surprises,
though the injuries to Kyle Walker and Reece James have raised queries over the
makeup of England's defensive options.
·
The England manager's final team will be
whittled down from an original list of 55 names that were submitted to FIFA
last month.
·
And Sportsmail understands Eagles
attacker Eze, Leicester assailant Maddison and Newcastle striker Wilson are amongst
the names picked in Southgate's initial long list of players - with Brighton's
Lewis Dunk also under thought.
·
Given the huge opposition for places in
Southgate's squad, it would come as an astonishment if any of the three make
the final cut next week.
·
But the trio remain with a chance of making the team
that is scheduled to fly to Qatar on November 15 - six days before their
tournament opener against Iran.
Football World Cup: England manager Gareth Southgate criticised
for Qatar worker explanations
Gareth Southgate has been criticised by human rights groups
after saying workers in Qatar were "united" in deficient the World
Cup to go ahead. The England boss said the Gulf state workers "want the
football to come to Qatar" because they "love" the sport. Amnesty
International said refugee labourers were more worried about having their
rights "fully protected". To know more about England Vs Wales Tickets click here.
Qatar, the host of the World Cup finals from 20 November,
has been strongly criticised for its human rights best. Asked by the news
channel CNN how significant football is given Qatar's human rights concerns,
Southgate, 52, said: "In the end, football is all. It's why we're there,
it's what we're there to do."

He added: "I've been out to Qatar numerous times and
I've met with lots of the workers out there and they are joint in surely one
thing, and that's that they want the tournament to happen. "They want that
because they love football. They want football to come to Qatar. But we also
need to be truthful about how much we're going to affect in a republic that we
don't control."
It is estimated up to 30,000 migrant labourers have been
used on schemes to build seven stadiums for the finals in Qatar, as well as a
new airport, new metro and new infrastructures. The English Football
Association (FA) has backed calls for recompense to be awarded for "any
injury or death related to any edifice project" for the Football World
Cup.

The England team also plans to invite migrant workers to the
team's World Cup exercise base in Al Wakrah to engage with players. "As an
FA we've talked to human rights groups about what they would like to see, and
we're trying to provision those ideas with recompense for families who have
lost workers and a worker's rights centre," Southgate told CNN.
"We're supporting the things we've been asked to provision."
Amnesty International's migrants' labour rights investigator
Ella Knight said: "Many workers in Qatar will of course be football fans,
but what migrant workers have stressed to us is the need to have their rights
fully endangered, to be paid properly, able to change jobs freely and to enjoy
safe and distinguished working conditions - before, during and after this competition."
Knight added: "The World Cup is about to take place
with vital labour reforms still very much incomplete business, and thousands of
workers abuses remaining unaddressed. "The opening game is now less than
three weeks away and Fifa is yet to obligate to curing workers and their
families for the abuses they've suffered despite wide support from the public,
FAs, players and World Cup sponsors.
"We urge the FA to maintain its pressure on Fifa,
pushing it to recognise and urgently address the sorrow of workers without whom
the World Cup simply wouldn't be possible." Minky Worden, director of
global initiatives at Human Rights Watch, said: "There are many migrant
workers who are proud of the work they have done to shape the Football World
Cup in Qatar.

"But there are also many who have suffered avoidable
deaths and harms and until the deaths, loans, injuries and wage theft are
compensated, it is not correct to say all refugee workers are 'united'. "Any family who received a loved one and
breadwinner home in a coffin without recompense from Fifa and Qatar cannot
cheer the inaugural of this Qatar World Cup."
Southgate said before that England's players cannot do
much more beyond discussing human rights subjects in the build-up to
the World Cup. England captain Harry Kane will wear a One Love
armband which seeks to endorse diversity and presence and act as a message
against taste.
Homosexual acts are illegal in Qatar because they are careful
to be immoral under Islamic Sharia law, with sentences including fines, prison
sentences of up to seven years - and even demise. In February 2021, the
Guardian said 6,500 migrant workers from India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and
Sri Lanka had died in Qatar since it won its World Cup bid.
The number is based on figures from the countries' embassies
in Qatar. However, the Qatar government said the total was misleading because
not all the deaths recorded were of people working on World Cup-related
projects. The administration said its accident records showed that between 2014
and 2020, there were 37 deaths among labourers at World Cup stadium building
sites, only three of which were "work connected".
Ben Chilwell: Chelsea left-back an England doubt for Football World
Cup after a hamstring wound
England left-back Ben Chilwell is a doubt for the World Cup
after suffering a constrain injury in Chelsea's Champions League win against
Dinamo Zagreb. The defender, 25, pulled up in stoppage time after grasping the
back of his leg. He was unable to continue and was imagined leaving Stamford
Bridge on crutches following the Blues' 2-1 win. To know more about England Vs USA Tickets click here.
Ben Chilwell |
"It doesn't look optimistic," Chelsea boss Graham
Potter said.
"It's a blow for us on a then positive evening I think.
It's a blow to see him pull up like that, it's not a great sight.
"So fingers traversed when we get the scan it isn't
bad, it can be not severe, but we have to have fingers crossed at the moment.
But clearly, we're dissatisfied."
Football World Cup injury watch
England kick off their World Cup movement in Qatar against
Iran on 21 November. Chilwell has been capped 17 times and was part of the
England team at Euro 2020, although he did not make an appearance during the competition.
He suffered a ruptured cruciate tendon in November last year and was ruled out
until May.
Asked if the injury is an anxiety for the Football World
Cup, Potter added: "I think you'd have to say so. " I don't want to
say any more than that but when a player pulls up like he did, and he felt it,
it's never positive. "It's a blow for us and a blow for him and sadly he
won't be the only one who's pretentious like that in this period because
October was incredibly thought-provoking, the games that we had to play, but it
is what it is."
'Heartbreaking so close to Football World Cup'
Former England Football World Cup manager Glenn Hoddle said
on BT Sport: "I feel for [Ben Chilwell, dreadfully. Sometimes with a
hamstring, you get a little warning sign. That's when you put your hand up. "That
one just went. His face went and as he touches the ball he grimaces and looks
in real pain. It looks like a nasty one. I don't understand why they haven't
carried him off.
"That's such a blow. I am gutted for him." Former
Chelsea and England midfielder Joe Cole said he felt for Chilwell given how
close it is to the World Cup. "It's heartbreaking," he said on BT
Sport. "As soon as it happens all you can think about is that it is so
close to a Football World Cup. "If it's a hamstring injury usually the
least you can hope for is two to three weeks before you get back on to the
pitch. It's tough. I feel for him."
