World Cup 2018 squads ranked by average age – England team youngest AND least experienced
ENGLAND have the youngest and least experienced squad at the 2018 World Cup.
Gareth Southgate has selected the youngest squad heading to the 2018 World Cup finals in Russia this month.
England have shifted plenty of their old guard out of the team across the last couple of tournaments, with a fresh batch of hot prospects ready to make their mark.
In addition to being the youngest squad out of the 32 nations, the Three Lions also have the fewest caps on average per player.
At the other end of the scale, several teams are close to the average age of 30 with 60 caps each to their name.
Germany have a strong balance of both, while Brazil have a fresh look about the side that was unceremoniously dumped out of the 2014 tournament in their own backyard.
Take a look through the gallery to reveal the average age of every 2018 World Cup squad.
