Despite this, the goalkeeper's position is under scrutiny as young talents like Burnley's James Trafford emerge as viable alternatives.
The Daily Mail reported that Pickford remains England's first choice, yet the competition is intensifying. The iNews highlighted the ongoing battle for the England goalkeeper spot ahead of major tournaments, with several promising keepers in the mix.
