Thomas Tuchel (52), England's coach, has called up no less than 35 players for the friendly matches to be played against Uruguay on March 27 and Japan on March 31. However, the FA made an error when announcing the squad, stating that Marc Guehi had been called up from Crystal Palace, although the centre-back moved to Manchester City this winter.
Marc Guehi was signed by Manchester City this winter from Crystal Palace for £20m, with the centre-back out of contract with the Eagles at the end of this season.
The English Football Association forgot that Marc Guehi transferred to Manchester City
When the FA released Thomas Tuchel's squad for the friendlies against Uruguay and Japan, Marc Guehi was listed as a Crystal Palace player, although the centre-back left the London outfit this winter, having been transferred by Manchester City for £20m.

Marc Guehi is one of 5 'citizens' called up by Thomas Tuchel, alongside goalkeeper James Trafford, defenders Nico O'Reilly and John Stones, and midfielder Phil Foden.
We have a training camp where we bring in players we haven't seen before or haven't developed much to open up the competition for spots in the US tournament. And from Friday and Saturday, a new group of players will join the training camp, they will have a period of rest before, and then we will approach the match against Japan with a different squad, a new combination of players.
