Coach Gareth Southgate has just made a tough decision to remove many names of English football from the list of 33 preliminary players preparing for the Euro 2024 finals.
The Three Lions captain did not cause any harm by skipping two favorite players of Jordan Henderson and Marcus Rashford.
In addition, quality attacking players like Raheem Sterling or Jadon Sancho are also absent, providing many young members with promising prospects.
Sancho and Rashford will not attend Euro 2024
Jordan Henderson is a veteran midfielder, regularly on the list since Southgate was added in 2016.
While Rashford also made 57 appearances under Gareth Southgate. Poor performance at club level this season has left both of them out.
In the preliminary list, there are 5 people who have not played any matches for England, typically Jarrell Quansah, Jarrad Branthwaite or Curtis Jones.
Coach Southgate plans to put Alexander-Arnold in midfield alongside Declan Rice. Kobbie Mainoo and Conor Gallagher shop for spare equipment.
Jude Bellingham is definitely guaranteed to get the number 10 role, similar to how he plays at Real Madrid. Southgate’s biggest copy is arranged in terms of which position Phil Foden plays to maximize his potential.
After eliminating Ben Chilwell, the British military leader still kept sick soldier Luke Shaw on the left wing, even though he is being treated for injury and has not played with MU in the past few months.
Gareth Southgate still has until June 7 to eliminate 7 members, completing the official list of 26 people to submit registration to Uefa.
