Jordan Pickford’s reign as England’s first-choice goalkeeper may be under pressure as new boss Thomas Tuchel considers in-form challengers. Pickford, with 75 caps since becoming England’s No.1 at the 2018 World Cup, now faces competition from Dean Henderson and James Trafford.
Henderson, 28, starred for Crystal Palace in their FA Cup triumph, saving a penalty in the final against Manchester City and keeping 11 Premier League clean sheets—only two fewer than league leaders. Meanwhile, 22-year-old Trafford played a key role in Burnley’s immediate return to the Premier League, keeping a record-setting 29 clean sheets and conceding just 16 goals in 46 matches.
Tuchel, who replaced Gareth Southgate, reportedly sees Henderson, Trafford, and Aaron Ramsdale as equals to Pickford. With England set to face Andorra and Senegal in June, Tuchel will announce his next squad soon, and a goalkeeping shake-up appears possible.
