Jordan Pickford, John Stones and Marcus Rashford will also be appearing at their third World Cup. Jordan Henderson will be making a Three Lions’ record-equalling fourth appearance in the finals alongside Sir Bobby Charlton. It will be his seventh major tournament, equalling Lucy Bronze’s all-time England record of UEFA Euro and World Cup final appearances.

On the other hand, Cole Palmer, who inspired Chelsea to FIFA Club World Cup 2025 glory and was on target in England’s UEFA Euro 2024 final defeat by Spain, has not made the cut after an injury-hampered season which has disrupted his form.
