Sky Bet launch England specials ahead of the 2026 World Cup

England manager Thomas Tuchel sent shockwaves through English football late last month when he unveiled his 26-man squad for the World Cup, with a number of surprise selections and notable omissions raising plenty of eyebrows. 

Among the biggest names left out were Cole Palmer, Phil Foden, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Harry Maguire – a blend of world-class talent and major tournament experience. 

Meanwhile, the inclusions of Djed Spence and Dan Burn came as unexpected calls to many supporters. 

However, as the tournament draws closer, growing numbers of fans and pundits are beginning to see the logic behind Tuchel’s decisions, with many believing the German has a clear plan that could prove successful. 

With excitement building around England’s campaign, Sky Bet has launched a range of England Specials for fans who will be following the Three Lions throughout the tournament. 

It is the England Top Goalscorer market that will be the focus of this article, with Harry Kane unsurprisingly installed as the 1/2 favourite. 

The England captain enjoyed another sensational campaign for Bayern Munich, scoring a remarkable 61 goals across all competitions. 

Kane also boasts a proven track record on the biggest stage, having won the World Cup Golden Boot in 2018 after netting six times in Russia. 

There is then a sizeable gap in the betting to the second favourite, with Bukayo Saka priced at 8/1. 

The Arsenal winger has already shown he can deliver on the biggest stage, finishing as England’s joint-top scorer at the 2022 World Cup with three goals. 

Two of those came in the Three Lions’ opening 6-2 victory over Iran, before he added another in the round-of-16 win against Senegal. 

Meanwhile, Jude Bellingham and Morgan Rogers are next in the betting at 12/1, with the pair sharing third-favouritism in the market. 

Bellingham’s ability to arrive late in the box and contribute crucial goals makes him an intriguing contender, while Rogers has enjoyed a breakthrough rise and could offer plenty of value at that price.

For those looking further down the betting, Marcus Rashford is available at 16/1. The forward has already proven his goalscoring credentials on the world stage, finishing as England’s joint-top scorer at the 2022 World Cup alongside Saka with three goals.
