by · The Mirror

Thomas Tuchel will announce his England squad for the upcoming international break. The Three Lions face Uruguay on Friday, March 27 before taking on Japan on Tuesday, March 31.

With England also facing New Zealand on June 6 and Costa Rica in a friendly on June 10, a week before the start of the World Cup, Tuchel's team only has four more matches before their campaign in Mexico, Canada and the USA kicks off with their first group match against Croatia on June 17.

They will then go on to face Ghana on June 23 before a potentially pivotal final group match against Panama, eight years after the Three Lions beat them 6-1 in the World Cup with Harry Kane blasting in a hat-trick.
