Wembley Stadium is set to see a notable change in the stands for future home international matches.
As reported by The Sun, England fans have been offered the chance to create a new singing section to improve the atmosphere in the national stadium.
Proposals for Wembley singing section after atmosphere criticism
According to The Sun, England fans will have the chance to take part in a new singing section at Wembley, in a bit to improve the atmosphere at home international fixtures.
The trial is set to begin in a friendly against Japan on March 31, 2026 – the Three Lions' final match on home soil before the World Cup in the summer.
That game follows a home fixture against Uruguay four days prior, as Thomas Tuchel's side ramp up their preparations for the tournament in the USA, Mexico and Canada kicking off in June.
Tuchel himself was critical about the lack of home atmosphere in previous Wembley fixtures in 2025, particularly after a 3-0 victory over Wales in October, saying: “The stadium was silent. Silent. We never got any energy back from the stands.”
With criticism having also come from many fans, members of the England Travel Supporters Club have received emails with the chance to relocate to a new singing section for the Japan match in March, in an effort to trigger a spike in atmosphere in the Wembley stands.
How has Thomas Tuchel fared at Wembley during England tenure?
Despite his vocal concerns about the Wembley atmosphere, Tuchel boasts a perfect record as England manager at the national stadium thus far.
The German has overseen nine victories and just one defeat in 10 matches in the Three Lions hot seat thus far, with all four games at Wembley ending in victories.
Across those matches under Tuchel at the home ground in London, England have scored 10 goals without conceding across World Cup qualifying and the aforementioned friendly win over Wales.
FGG says: Positive steps in bid to make Wembley a hostile home ground
Given its open and expansive nature, it is understandable that Wembley struggles to cultivate an atmosphere as a home ground, as opposed to when fans of two clubs are split at the ground as a neutral venue.
That, combined with the family focus of England's national teams, may not therefore feed Tuchel and his team with the desired energy from the stands.
A passionate singing section, therefore, should be a great step in helping replicate England's more vocal home fanbases on the international stage, which would only lend a boost to the Three Lions stars.
