As already confirmed, seven Barça stars are in the Spain squad, while Raphinha will be representing the Brazilian national team.

Now, England manager Thomas Tuchel has called up Anthony Gordon for their UEFA Nations League games.

The 25-year-old winger joined Barça from Newcastle United in the summer for a fee of €70 million plus €10 million in add-ons.

He has made a solid start to life in Catalonia, settling in quickly, building partnerships with his attacking partners, having already registered three assists.

Having been a key part of the England squad that finished third in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Gordon will hope to help the Three Lions make a positive start to their Nations League campaign.

Tuchel & co. will play Spain in their first game, meaning Gordon will come up against some of his club teammates, including Pedri and Rodri. Following that, England will take on Czechia (twice) and Croatia.
