England's head coach Thomas Tuchel has officially announced the 26-man squad for the FIFA World Cup 2026, to be hosted in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Harry Kane will captain the team for a record-equalling third time, matching the legendary Billy Wright's achievement from the 1950s. The squad features several key players who were instrumental in securing a perfect qualification record, including Jordan Pickford, John Stones, and Marcus Rashford, all making their third World Cup appearances. Jordan Henderson will also make history with his fourth World Cup appearance, equalling Sir Bobby Charlton's record. However, notable absentees include Cole Palmer and Phil Foden, who were left out due to injury and form issues, respectively. The team will gather for a preparatory camp in Palm Beach, Florida, starting June 1, before heading to their tournament base in Kansas City. England is placed in Group L alongside Croatia, Ghana, and Panama, with their campaign kicking off against Croatia on June 17 at Dallas Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Tuchel expressed excitement about the squad, emphasizing the players' dedication to making the country proud.
