The Real Madrid defender was controversially left out of the Three Lions' 2026 World Cup squad, but has now been brought back into the fold.
He is named in the squad alongside Chelsea's Cole Palmer - who also missed the World Cup - as well as Myles Lewis-Skelly, Lewis Hall, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Alex Scott, Jarrad Branthwaite and young star Rio Ngumoha.
Tuchel's reliable picks of Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice, Marc Guehi, Ezri Konsa, Jordan Pickford, Bukayo Saka, Anthony Gordon and Marcus Rashford have all been selected.
Despite no minutes in North America over the summer, Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo also returns.
There is no place in the side for Reece James, nor is there a spot for World Cup squad members Jordan Henderson, Dean Henderson, John Stones, Djed Spence, Dan Burn, Noni Madueke, Ivan Toney or Ollie Watkins.
England are set to take part in an extended international break for their opening UEFA Nations League fixtures with Spain, Croatia and twice against the Czech Republic.
