A number of English players have set the Premier League alight in the early stages of the season, with Tottenham’s Harry Kane netting nine times in 10 games and Brentford forward Ivan Toney giving Southgate something to think about with an impressive eight goals.
Bukayo Saka has played a major role in Arsenal’s blistering start to the term, while Manchester City’s Phil Foden and Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham have also been in sparkling form for their clubs.
When will England announce their 2022 World Cup squad?
Southgate is expected to announce his provisional squad for the World Cup on Thursday, October 20, before whittling it down to the final 26-man squad at a later date.
The squad limit has been increased from 23 for the first time.
When is the 2022 World Cup?
The World Cup will run from November 21 to December 18.
It has been scheduled in those months because of the intense heat in Qatar in the summer, which would make playing conditions difficult. It will be the first World Cup not to be held in May, June, or July.
What about the Premier League?
The Premier League will be on hold while the World Cup takes place.
The season started a week earlier than usual on August 6 and the final round of matches will be on May 28, 2023, a week later than the end of last season’s campiagn.
The last round of matches will take place on November 12/13 before players head off to Qatar, giving them around a week with their international teams to prepare for the World Cup.
The Premier League will then resume on December 26.
