Where to watch England v Croatia as Harry Kane prepares to make history
TalkSport

Thomas Tuchel’s England are preparing to play their final two games of 2026 with Harry Kane set to surpass Peter Shilton’s appearance record.
The Three Lions boss named his 25-man squad last Friday and Ballon d’Or winner Kane is set to become the most-capped Three Lions player after he equalled Shilton’s appearance record of 125 in October.
The squad also includes two first-time call-ups with Borussia Dortmund ‘s Jobe Bellingham , and Fulham ‘s Josh King .
King already has experience with the senior squad, having travelled stateside in the summer to be a part of the pre-World Cup training camp in Florida.
Jobe joins his under-21 teammate after impressing for Dortmund this season, and will be alongside his brother Jude for the national team for the first time.
England will be hoping to seal their place in the Nations League quarter-finals next March by finishing either first or second in the group.
Tuchel’s side currently sit in second place in Group C and only need to avoid defeat to Slaven Bilic ‘s Croatia to progress in the competition.

England vs Croatia team news
Ezri Konsa will not feature in Thursday’s clash with Croatia at Wembley and will continue to follow his own training programme before hopefully returning prior to the Spain match up on Sunday.
Additionally, Manchester City’s Marc Guehi pulled out of the squad through injury leading to Dan Burn’s late inclusion.
Bournemouth defender James Hill will provide Tuchel with a further defensive option alongside Newcastle captain Burn, Konsa, Jarrad Branthwaite and Jarell Quansah.
The England boss can also call upon Ben White, Lewis Hall , Djed Spence and Myles Lewis-Skelly .
Tuchel has revealed he could again split goalkeeping responsibilities between Jordan Pickford and James Trafford for the two fixtures.
W hile England’s No.1 shirt has been largely undisputed since Pickford entered the fold in 2017, the last international break saw himself and Trafford share the minutes.
The Leeds keeper’s increased game time for the Three Lions has fueled speculation over a potential changing of the guard in goal.
However, Tuchel has insisted that Pickford remains first-choice for now.
He said: “Pickford is number one, but nothing has changed. The competition is on there as well, like for the outfield players.
“They shared the matches last time. I’m not sure what we will do. There’s an opportunity that we maybe do this again. I have to speak with our goalkeeper coach.”
He added: “When do I have a chance to see another goalkeeper, if not in Nations League? If not in high pressure matches?
“So we had James against Spain [a 3-2 defeat]. Because what happens if Jordan Pickford is injured? What happens if he’s not available? So it’s better to test it.
“Jordan knows about this, that we want to use Nations League for exactly that.
“But at the moment, nothing has changed. At the moment, he’s the number one. And he just feels a bit of competition. Which is good for him.”
