Tuchel Sets Strict Transfer Timing Rules for England at 2026 World Cup
England manager Thomas Tuchel has outlined clear guidelines for player moves when the summer transfer window overlaps the World Cup in North America. He confirmed that internationals can finalise club transfers during the tournament, but only when it does not clash with match preparation. Moves will be discouraged on matchday, the day before, and possibly two days prior. Tuchel believes settling club futures quietly keeps players focused on England’s fixtures. He added that private and efficient negotiations are welcome, provided they fit around the team’s schedule.
