England’s Manchester City players worried about future after club’s guilty verdict, Thomas Tuchel says

England manager Thomas Tuchel stated that Manchester City players are naturally anxious about their futures after the club was found guilty of Premier League financial rule breaches. Speaking ahead of a Nations League match against Croatia, Tuchel confirmed that City players Marc Guehi, Elliot Anderson, and Nico O'Reilly have faced questions during the international window, though O'Reilly subsequently returned home due to injury.

Tuchel affirmed he would still consider selecting Manchester City players even if potential sanctions involve relegation outside the top flight. City have appealed the independent panel's verdict, asserting they possess irrefutable evidence of innocence. Tuchel also addressed selections regarding Real Madrid defender Trent Alexander-Arnold and forward Bukayo Saka ahead of the Croatia fixture.
