Thomas Tuchel recently explained his decision to include Ivan Toney in the squad after Toney’s season in Saudi Arabia. England’s team is now training in heated tents, set up to mimic conditions expected for next summer’s finals.
Currently, the side is based in Spain, engaged in a warm-weather camp ahead of a qualifier against Andorra scheduled for Saturday. They will finish the 2024-25 season with a friendly match against Senegal in Nottingham.
The Football Association and coach Tuchel are also preparing for the upcoming tournament in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Special pitchside tents with raised heat have been installed, and players complete bike routines while their recovery is tracked to see how they respond.
The setup gives coaches precise details on every player’s adjustment when facing elevated conditions during challenging training sessions.
