THOMAS TUCHEL has yet to make any contact with striker Mason Greenwood after his Jamaica snub.
Marseille striker Greenwood had decided to play for Jamaica after competing just once for England, against Iceland five years ago.
But the former Manchester United player’s international u-turn this week looked set to open the door for an England return.
But England manager Thomas Tuchel said: “I have not spoken to him until now. I have not spoken to him or his camp.
“My understanding was that he tries to play for Jamaica so we didn’t give it another thought.
“He was not in the mix at the moment and he is not in our thoughts for our team. I don’t rule anything out but he is no priority at the moment.”
Greenwood was sent home in disgrace from Iceland after breaking COVID-19 rules with Phil Foden by inviting two women to the team hotel.
In October 2022, he was charged with attempted rape, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and controlling and coercive behaviour.
In February 2023, all charges against him were dropped.
Jamaica boss Steve McClaren is annoyed that Greenwood has not accepted the call-up.
McClaren said: “We acquired a passport and we expected him to be coming to this camp but in a conversation with his family, he’s not going to commit at this time to anybody.
“It’s a little bit disappointing, we probably have to be more patient.
“We will keep pursuing him because I know from my conversations with Mason that he loves Jamaica.
“He wants to concentrate on club football and not commit to an international team at the moment.
“He’s taking his time over that. Who knows in the future?
“It’s a disappointment for everybody because he would have been a big asset and he would have come here and enjoyed his football.”
