England coach Gareth Southgate has refused to publish their 55- man provisional squad list ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
The Three Lions of England’s fringe players who were looking to get a confidence boost from the list are now left guessing as to whether they are in Southgate’s plans for the upcoming tournament.
According to the Daily Mail, the English FA submitted a 55-man list to FIFA, but the list will not be made known to the public and the players and their clubs will not be informed.
The FA sees the list as an administrative issue and considers the final 26-man list as the ‘real deal’.
The 2022 FIFA World Cup will hold between November 20 and December 18. England are in Group B alongside Wales, Iran, and the USA.
The Three Lions won the FIFA World Cup in 1966 on home soil, the only time they have been able to do so.

After stupid imitator England team coach Gareth Southgate will declare his provisional English Squad for World Cup, I recommend Peseiro to recall players who were not recalled , Peseiro must recall them to Super Eagles squad, so he must follow English last squad for World Cup in Qatar, this a key which Peseiro can open with it closed door of Angelo-Nigerian players who based in England.
I respect your views, but do you think the whole SE should go celebrating with England rejects/cast outs? We don’t want rejects. Only those who’ve made the SE their first destination.
KangA your advice is so good , but Ithink just like Michael Oliseh, Malcom Ebiowie , Solanki, Chukwumeka, Eberechi Eze all thoes are talented players who have visions, play modern football; thoes players Southgate is chasing them tell now, he only has to recall 55 players then will be curtailed to 26 players as a basic squad for World Cup; so Peseiro can recall thoes players to strengthen Super Eagles.
