Bukayo Saka has been excluded from the England squad for the qualifier against Andorra due to insufficient training recovery from a recent injury. Manager Thomas Tuchel confirmed Saka's limited participation in training and expressed cautious optimism about his availability for the upcoming Senegal match. Tuchel praised Saka's prior consistency and his importance to the team, highlighting his resilience and ability to play regularly. Although Saka's absence is unfortunate, he is considered a key player in team strategy moving forward.
"Until his latest injury he was more or less always available, always playable every three days. He had this consistency in his game and in his body, which made him very unique."
"He [Saka] came into camp with a little bit of discomfort from the last match against Southampton, so we took care of him and treated him individually until today basically."
