Tomori’s excellent form so far this season saw him earn a recall to the England squad for the current internationals, starting the 1-0 friendly win against Australia on Friday night and generally performing well.
He has been one of the best defenders in Serie A and that led many to think he would be given another chance against Italy tonight, who obviously feature a number of players that Tomori has played against multiple times.
However, Sky are reporting that Tomori and Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah are both not even in the matchday squad for the game at Wembley between the Three Lions and the Azzurri, and there are no injury problems for either player.
Whether that means Tomori will return to Milanello early remains to be seen, but it will certainly be a personal disappointment for him.
