Squad announcements details for next England games

The first men’s international window of the 2026-27 season takes place later this month, and we have six teams in action across the extended period with squads set to be announced on Friday 18 September 2026.

In a change to the traditional international football calendar in autumn, this year will see an extended first window take place between 21 September and 6 October with more matchdays included within that.

Three Lions' schedule

For the men’s senior team, they will kick-off their new UEFA Nations League campaign at a sold-out Wembley when they welcome the new world champions Spain on Saturday 26 September (7.45pm). If you haven’t got tickets, you can still enter our competition to win a pair for this game, only on the England app.

Following that, the Three Lions will face trips to play Czechia (7.45pm, Tuesday 29 September) and Croatia (5pm, Saturday 3 October) before it’s back to Wembley for the return date with Czechia (7.45pm, Tuesday 6 October). Tickets for that game remain on sale.

Watch the MU21s live

It’s also an important month for Lee Carsley’s MU21s, as they play their final three UEFA U21 EURO qualifiers and have an opportunity to secure their place at next summer’s Finals in Albania and Serbia.

England men’s under-21s’ upcoming fixtures against Kazakhstan, Slovakia and the Republic of Ireland will be available to watch live on the official England app.

There are also fixtures for the men’s development teams from MU20s through to the MU17s, with the coaching line-up for each of those squads revealed earlier this week.

All times listed are in BST.
