The Three Lions, one-time World Cup winners, are in Group L alongside Croatia, Ghana and Panama and will take on Croatia in Arlington, Texas, on June 18 to start their FIFA WC campaign.
Notably, England's 26-member squad is in Florida for acclimatisation to the hot weather in the host country.
England announced their squad for the showpiece event last month. Star players Cole Palmer, Harry Maguire and Phil Foden were omitted while Ivan Toney and Ollie Watkins made the cut.
Coming to the World Cup 2026, FIFA has confirmed a record-breaking participation for the upcoming showpiece event, with final squad lists revealing 1,248 players from 48 nations set to compete in the expanded global tournament.
