“Fikayo Tomori benefits from the injury of Trevoh Chalobah,” Tuchel said.
“Trevoh unfortunately got injured in the last minutes of the Champions League match and we hope that he comes back soon but it looks like a little bit of a nasty and painful one.
“It gives Fikayo the chance to come and impress. I was in contact with him through the whole year basically and was impressed very early when I watched him play with his physicality and approach to defending, so happy to have him in camp.”
The 28-year-old has made five appearances for the Three Lions.
