Sporting Kansas City is set to host England in a behind-closed-doors friendly match after the World Cup opener against Croatia. The match is likely to take place between England's fixtures against Croatia and Ghana. England is in talks with Sporting Kansas City to arrange the friendly, which will be played at Swope Soccer Village, the team's training facility. Sporting Kansas City is managed by Raphael Wicky, a former Switzerland international. The friendly will be used to build match fitness for the players who do not play significant minutes against Croatia. England has already played one behind-closed-doors game in the USA, against Miami FC during their pre-tournament camp in Florida.
