Bournemouth’s Alex Scott Earns First England Call-Up for Serbia and Albania Qualifiers

The November camp serves as an audition before Tuchel finalizes his 2026 World Cup squad.

Overview

  • England have secured World Cup qualification, so the Serbia and Albania games will help staff assess newcomers like Scott.
  • Tuchel told the 22-year-old of his inclusion via a text and subsequent FaceTime, prompting what Scott called a "dream come true."
  • The midfielder’s rise runs from non-league Guernsey in 2019 to Bristol City and then Bournemouth, earning Under-21 recognition along the way.
  • Injuries over the past two seasons — including a broken jaw in May — curtailed his minutes before his recent run of form.
  • A debut this window would echo his footballing family, with stepsister Maya Le Tissier already capped by the Lionesses.
