Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah has received his first-ever call-up to the England national team, as confirmed by renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano on Thursday.

The 25-year-old defender has been included in Thomas Tuchel's squad for England's upcoming World Cup qualifiers next month. The Three Lions are scheduled to face Andorra on June 7, followed by a match against Senegal three days later at the City Ground.

England currently sit at the top of Group K with a perfect record of two wins from their first two qualifying matches. Tuchel, who replaced Gareth Southgate as England manager in October last year, has maintained a 100% win record in his tenure so far, securing victory in both matches under his leadership.

This call-up represents a significant milestone in Chalobah's career and comes as no surprise given his impressive form for Chelsea in recent months. The defender has played a crucial role in the Blues' pursuit of a Champions League place this season.

Chalobah's selection is particularly noteworthy as he already has an established relationship with Tuchel, having worked under the German coach for over a year during Tuchel's time at Chelsea. This existing rapport may have influenced the manager's decision to bring the defender into the national setup.

Despite being linked with a potential exit from Stamford Bridge this summer, Chalobah's continued strong performances and subsequent international recognition could prompt a reconsideration of his future at the London club.

The defender's first England call-up serves as testament to his significant development and improved form in recent months, with Tuchel clearly valuing the qualities Chalobah can bring to the national team as they continue their World Cup qualification campaign.
