World Cup 2026: England request Kansas City base for tournament

Advertisements

England are set to be based at the Swope Soccer Village in Kansas City for this year’s World Cup campaign.

World governing body Fifa is not likely to rubber-stamp the location of each nation’s training facilities until the start of February.

But the Football Association has submitted a request to stay in the Missouri city, with the state-of-the-art Swope facility nominated as their first-choice daily training base.

While Fifa is still to officially confirm each nation’s chosen base, it is understood England are very likely to be allocated their preferred location.

England’s Group L matches against Croatia, Ghana and Panama will be played in Arlington (Texas), Foxborough (near Boston) and East Rutherford (New Jersey) respectively.
