England’s Euro 2024 Squad Ranked Based on World Cup 2026 Selection Chances

With Gareth Southgate’s departure from England confirmed, it means that one part of the core group that took the Three Lions to the Euro 2024 final will not be jetting off to the United States in two years’ time for the 2026 World Cup. Whoever replaces the 53-year-old will have big shoes to fill and expectations will be high. But there are also questions about who else from the squad might drop out.

For some, the recent European Championships will be the last chance they ever have of lifting a trophy for their country. For others, it was the first chapter in what will become a storied international career that will continue in North America. Ranking them from ‘Definitely on the Plane’ to ‘No chance’ of making the squad, this is how likely every member of England’s Euro 2024 team is of being called up to the first ‘post-Southgate’ tournament.
