Thomas Tuchel, head coach of England's A national football team, eventually made a public apology.

British media The Sun reported on the 30th (Korean time) 'Tuchel apologized for calling Jude Bellingham's actions abhorrent'

England's A national football team will face Andorra (September 7th) and Serbia (September 10th) in Group K of the 2026 World Cup European qualifying round. England have won all three of their previous matches and are at the top of their group. Tuchel announced 24 players to play in the A-match in September.




Bellingham's name was not on the list. He is recovering from shoulder surgery. Nevertheless, his name was at the center of the issue.

The Sun admitted he was angry about Bellingham after losing to Senegal in the A-match in June. Tuchel claimed to have used the wrong word, referring to the fact that English is a second language.

England suffered a come-from-behind defeat to Senegal in a friendly at home on 11 June. For the first time in the history of the English national football team, the team suffered a defeat to an African country. After the game, Bellingham couldn't hold back his anger. I kicked the water bottle, ice box, etc. Tuchel publicly shot Bellingham at the time.




Tuchel was understandably upset by the headlines. I'm sorry about that. I chose the wrong word for the second foreign language. It is my responsibility. The player must have been upset. I hope it's resolved now. I used the word unintentionally. There was no message, no hidden meaning. I fully understand that it's my responsibility. I'm sorry to upset you."

Dussen added: "'Tuchel's unusual apology shows how sensitive Bellingham is to the FA.
