(Picture Credit: AP) Captain Harry Kane played seven matches for England in FIFA World Cup 2026 and scored six goals in addition to providing one assist for Jude Bellingham in the Round of 16 match against Belgium, but the 32-year-old failed to find a place in the FIFA Dream XI of World Cup 2026. In the FIFA Dream XI of the 2026 edition of the World Cup, picked by fans around the world, three French and three Spanish players managed to find their place along with two from Argentina and one each from Norway, England and Cape Verde, but England captain Harry Kane and Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon were the notable omissions. While Kane finished the tournament as the fifth-leading goal-scorer and played a big role in England’s third-place finish, Simon kept seven clean sheets in this year’s tournament and conceded only one goal in eight matches.

No player in the history of the FIFA World Cup has kept more than five clean sheets in one edition, but despite a record-breaking performance in Spain’s second FIFA World Cup title win, Simon was not picked. Instead of the Athletic Club star, Cape Verde’s Vozinha was included in the FIFA Dream XI as the shot-stopper. Your FIFA Dream XI is here ⭐Your favourite players, chosen by fans around the world.
