Cole Palmer's equaliser wasn't enough to take the game to extra-time with Real Sociedad's Mikel Oyarzabal getting a late winner for Luis de la Fuente's side.

"Something that Kane should be doing! Bellingham should be groomed for England captain! He demands a lot from himself and the team!"

"He should be the next captain."

Colum Wynn believes Kane should've done it instead of Jude:

"You'd think Kane, as captain and with all his experience at being a loser, would be the one that should have been doing this."

Hiximdad thinks Bellingham should captain England at the World Cup:

"He's captain of World Cup 2026. It has to be. Kane and Walker will be past it; his time is now."

Wei said:

"He didn't have a very good tournament, but still provided quite some moments. I think he can lead this team in the future. Harry is a wonderful player, but he is too quiet as a captain sometimes."

England players' potential earnings had they won Euro 2024

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that England could have won billions of Euros had they beaten Spain in the Euro 2024 final.

The Three Lions' players stood to reap big from their brand deals if they won a first major piece of silverware since 1966.
