Tuchel Names England Squad for 2026 World Cup

Thomas Tuchel has announced his 26-man England squad for the 2026 World Cup, as the Three Lions aim to end a 60-year wait for major tournament success. The squad features a blend of experienced players and emerging talent, with all statistics accurate as of 9 June.

England enjoyed an impressive qualifying campaign under Tuchel, becoming the first European side to win eight qualifiers without conceding a goal. However, confidence was dented by two lacklustre friendly performances against Uruguay and Japan in March.

Former manager Gareth Southgate led England to the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup and consecutive European Championship finals, but fell short of silverware. Tuchel now hopes to go one step further in this summer's tournament.
