The PA news agency has learned that Thomas Tuchel’s England will play a friendly at Nottingham Forest’s City Ground in June.

On June 7, England will play a Group K match against Andorra before playing a friendly that the Football Association intends to hold at the City Ground in Nottingham.

Senegal will apparently be the opponents in a June 10 match, however the specifics have not yet been finalized.

As the stadium prepares for a series of summer concerts featuring Oasis, Coldplay, and Dua Lipa,

England is playing away from Wembley.

In 1909, the men’s team defeated Wales 2-0 in the Home Championship,

their only other official international match at the City Ground.

In 1941, the stadium played host to a wartime friendly between the same countries.

The national team’s St George’s Park base is only 35 miles from the 30,445-seat stadium.

would have been in the cards if their qualification group had consisted of four teams instead of five.
