England manager Thomas Tuchel is facing a growing selection headache at right-back, with Djed Spence now considered unlikely to be fit in time for the side's FIFA World Cup 2026 clash against Mexico.

According to Sky Sports Football reporter Rob Dorsett, Spence's fitness concerns leave Tuchel with limited cover in a position that has already proved problematic throughout the tournament.

The injury blow compounds an already difficult situation for England's backline, forcing Tuchel to consider alternative options as the stakes in the competition continue to rise.
