It will be intriguing to see whether Alexander-Arnold makes the final cut, particularly because of the injury concerns Tuchel currently has at right-back.
The former Liverpool man appeared to be facing an uphill battle to make the squad, with Tuchel preferring Chelsea's Reece James, Newcastle's Tino Livramento and Arsenal's Ben White in the position.
Last year Tuchel said Bayer Leverkusen's Jarrell Quansah, whose natural position is centre-back, was ahead of Alexander-Arnold in the race for a right-back berth.
But Arsenal defender White is a major doubt for the World Cup with a knee injury suffered in Sunday's win at West Ham, while Livramento is currently unavailable - though there is hope the Newcastle defender will be fit for the World Cup.
James, who is Tuchel's first-choice right-back, has also only recently returned from injury.
Elsewhere, Manchester United left-back Shaw could yet earn an international recall in time for the tournament.
Shaw hasn't played for England since the Euro 2024 final defeat against Spain, mainly due to injury.
But the full-back, who has played 34 times for England, is playing regularly for United, making 36 appearances for his club this season.
Welbeck has been a regular scorer for Brighton this season, with 14 goals for Fabian Hurzeler's team - but the veteran is yet to break into one of Tuchel's squads.
Bournemouth midfielder Scott was called up into the senior England squad for the first time in November but was omitted from Tuchel's previous party.
