England manager Thomas Tuchel confirms he may have his substitutes stay in the dressing room at the 2026 World Cup because of the high temperatures:

“If this is what helps us later in matches when they come on, we have to consider it a possibility. Nobody likes it because I want the players to be out there to feel the energy and give us energy from the bench on to the field.”

“But, I saw players doing this at the Club World Cup. Hopefully we can avoid it. It’s always better when they can be with us outside.”
