England Squad World Cup 2026 Latest: Tuchel picks 35 players for March friendlies | OneFootball

Friday 20 March - Tuchel picks uncapped players in 35-man England squad

Thomas Tuchel is keeping his options open for England's World Cup squad after he picked a bumper 35-man group for the friendlies against Uruguay and Japan on 27 and 31 March respectively.

Uncapped players were among those to get the call up, including Everton midfielder James Garner and Brighton goalkeeper Jason Steele, while Harry Maguire, Kobbie Mainoo and Lewis Hall returned to the squad.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin's goalscoring form for Leeds saw the forward recalled and he is 21/10 to go to the World Cup as one of Harry Kane's understudies.

There was no place for Real Madrid defender Trent Alexander-Arnold, although he is 8/11 to be on the plane to North America this summer.

Ollie Watkins is another who misses out on this squad but is still odds-on - at 4/9 - to make the final cut.

Check out the latest odds on who will make the England squad for the World Cup, including markets for goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders and forwards.

Prices range from 1/33 on captain Kane to 40/1 on outsider Harry Armstrong and you can get the latest on everyone who's in with a shout of making the squad.

Remember, there is often at least one player who plays themselves into contention with a late season run of form. Max Dowman at 8/1 anyone?

England qualified for the World Cup with a 100% record and fans' expectations will be high this summer.

They are 6/1 second favourites in the outright winner market behind European champions Spain 9/2. Tuchel was brought in to end England's 60 year wait for a World Cup win and, although he recently signed a contract extension to 2028, that is still his aim.
