England manager Thomas Tuchel described the rise of the Bellingham brothers as "incredible" after confirming that Jobe Bellingham has been called up to join his older brother Jude in the senior squad for the upcoming Nations League fixture against Croatia.

Speaking to media at Wembley Stadium on Friday, Tuchel praised the trajectory of both players. Jude Bellingham, already a key figure for Real Madrid and England, will be joined by 19-year-old Jobe, who currently plays for Sunderland in the Championship.

The match against Croatia is scheduled for November 2026 at Wembley, as England continue their Nations League campaign. Tuchel emphasized the importance of integrating young talent while maintaining the team's competitive edge.

The call-up marks a historic moment for the Bellingham family, with two brothers representing England simultaneously at senior level.
