Three Lions squad land in USA

The England squad have touched down in the USA, as they continue their preparations for the FIFA 2026 World Cup.

Head coach Thomas Tuchel and his support staff were joined by a number of the players on a flight from Birmingham Airport to Florida on Monday morning, while the remaining members of the squad reported directly to the base camp hotel separately following a short break at the end of their domestic season.

And they've now checked into their new base at West Palm Beach after arriving there in the early evening to get settled, before their first training session takes place on Tuesday morning (USA time).

With those players in the squad from Arsenal and Crystal Palace joining the group at a later date following their involvement in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Conference League Finals, Tuchel has added four young players to the group for training as they ramp up preparations for the World Cup.

While in Florida, England will continue their World Cup warm-up with two games against New Zealand (9pm BST, Saturday 6 June) and Costa Rica (9pm BST, Wednesday 10 June), with tickets for those matches now on sale.

England will then begin their World Cup campaign a week later when they meet Croatia in their group stage opener in Dallas on Wednesday 17 June (9pm BST), before facing Ghana in Boston on Tuesday 23 June (9pm BST) and then finishing the group stage games against Panama in New Jersey on Saturday 27 June (10pm BST).
