England have arrived in Kansas City, setting up their training base at Swope Soccer Village. Thomas Tuchel and his players are preparing for the World Cup 2026.

What happened?

The team's arrival was preceded by concerns about the openness of their training ground. However, the facility has armed police officers at the entrance, ensuring security.

Why it matters for England

The team's training base is vital for their World Cup preparations. England will rely on a different grass surface, which is of the same standard as the ones used by Argentina and the Netherlands.

What comes next?

England's next game is against Spain on 2026-09-26. Their recent form has been 2W-0D-2L, with a 2-game winning run. Their last result was a 4-2 win against Croatia on 2026-06-17.
