England: 2026 World Cup Squad, Fixtures and Schedule | OneFootball

England travel to North America for the FIFA World Cup this summer aiming to end a 60-year wait for major tournament success.

Thomas Tuchel’s team eased through the qualification process, and came close under former manager Gareth Southgate in recent years.

The Three Lions reached successive European Championship finals under Southgate in 2021 and 2024, alongside a run to the World Cup’s final four in 2018.

England have been drawn in Group L at the tournament, where Croatia, Ghana and Panama await in opposition.

Thomas Tuchel on his 26-man England squad for the World Cup

“An exciting day for me and I think for everyone selected. From day one we were very clear that we were trying to build and select the best possible team, which is not necessarily to select and collect 26 of the most talented players. Teams win championships – it is as simple as that.

“What we’re trying to achieve in the summer can only be achieved as a team. That in mind, we chose a very balanced squad. We chose three goalkeepers, plus Jason Steele (as training goalkeeper). I want to take the opportunity, and thank Jason for being brilliant, and thank Brighton for being so cooperative.

“We chose nine defenders for four positions, we chose seven midfielders for three positions, and we chose seven strikers for three positions.

“I can assure every fan in the country that we have 26 100% committed players with us. Who know their role, who are ready to buy into their role on and off the pitch and who are ready and committed to the idea of team spirit and being unselfish.”
