Brighton striker Welbeck surprise World Cup contender


 England may give a shock inclusion to Brighton striker Danny Welbeck in Gareth Southgate's 55-man World Cup list.

The Three Lions coach must name a massive group of players, as those are the only personnel he can call on for his final 26-man squad to go to Qatar this winter.

Welbeck last played for England in September 2018, with the Daily Mail suggesting he could be a shock inclusion in the list.

Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze and Leicester City's James Maddison are also in line for inclusions.

Newcastle United star Callum Wilson is also a possibility, given he is having a productive season so far.

However, Southgate's focus will be on his injured stars, including Kyle Walker, Kalvin Phillips, Reece James, and others who are a doubt for the tournament.
