Harry Kane, Dan Burn and Jason Steele attended an Ella Langley concert during England’s day off, but the group left before the final songs so they could meet the team curfew. The outing came after England’s opening World Cup win over Croatia, in which Kane scored twice.

Burn described Kane as a keen country music listener and said the captain often chooses that style when music is played at the team hotel. Burn also said he went all-in on the concert theme with a cowboy-style outfit, while Kane and Steele had the chance to meet Langley before the show.

The concert took place in Independence, Missouri, after England manager Thomas Tuchel had given the squad a free day on Friday. Langley’s profile has grown through her track “Choosin’ Texas”, which the source article says topped the US charts and reached number 12 in the UK.

Kane later shared images from the night on Instagram, including one with Langley holding an England shirt. For editors, the light-hearted episode offers a glimpse into how players balance downtime with tournament discipline.
