England forward Bukayo Saka has admitted he is continuing to "gamble" on his fitness ahead of the Three Lions' 2026 World Cup opener against Croatia in Dallas. The 24-year-old is desperate to feature for Thomas Tuchel’s side despite managing a nagging Achilles issue that has severely limited his playing time over the last three months.

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire has opened up on the "awkward" FaceTime call from Thomas Tuchel that ended his 2026 World Cup dreams. Despite suffering a contentious omission from the Three Lions squad, the veteran centre-back has firmly decided against retiring from international football as his country begins its campaign for global glory.

In the lead-up to England's semi-final showdown with Croatia at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, repeated references were made to the fact that Zlatko Dalic's ageing side had been taken to extra-time in their two previous matches. The feeling was among certain sections of the English press that fatigue might be a massive factor in the game at the Luzhniki Stadium.

Josko Gvardiol has reportedly reached an agreement with Manchester City over a lucrative new contract that will extend his stay at the Etihad Stadium until 2031. The versatile Croatian international has decided to commit his long-term future to the Premier League champions, effectively ending a period of intense speculation regarding his career.
