England v Senegal: Why is the friendly being held in Nottingham?

England’s friendly against Senegal on Tuesday is taking place at the City Ground in Nottingham as Wembley enters concert season.

The Three Lions traditionally play their home matches at the national stadium, but their final match of this season will be staged at Nottingham Forest’s home ground.

Wembley will host seven concerts in the next month, then another 19 – plus Oleksandr Usyk v Daniel Dubois – before England’s next match there, which is against Wales on 9 October.

The World Cup qualifier against Andorra in September will be held at Villa Park.

The last time the City Ground hosted England’s first team was in March 1909, when they were 2-0 winners over Wales in a Home Championship match.

Speaking after the announcement of the friendly, England boss Thomas Tuchel said: “Facing a strong African team in a passionate city with rich football heritage can only help us on the road to the World Cup.

“While I know Wembley is our home, I also understand the importance of taking the team around the country when we are able to and the opportunity to experience playing at a famous old English stadium such as the City Ground is one we can all look forward to.”
