United States President Donald Trump’s representative for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Andrew Giuliani, has thrown his support behind England to win the tournament if the host nation fails to go all the way.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, Giuliani said England would be a fitting champion during America’s 250th anniversary celebrations, adding that the Three Lions have what it takes to win the competition.
He said: “You know, if the United States can’t win on our 250th birthday, then a great story line would be the English coming to America and winning during our anniversary celebrations.
“It’s been 60 years of hurt I gather for England, so that would be beautiful victory for them if they won the tournament.
“I do absolutely think England can go all the way, they are one of the top teams left now.”
