Marcus Rashford and Jordan Henderson have been left out by Gareth Southgate as the England manager named a bumper 33-player training squad ahead of Euro 2024.
Rashford scored only eight goals all season in a dramatic drop off from his career high of 30 in the previous campaign and pays the price in a major shock. Henderson’s move to Ajax to save his international career has meanwhile failed and the 33-year-old is unlikely to play for his country again.
Crystal Palace duo Adam Wharton and Eberechi Eze have made the long list, which also includes Liverpool’s Jarell Quansah and Curtis Jones. But Chelsea full-backs Reece James and Ben Chilwell have been left out.
Southgate has named a large squad today, with several more than the allotted 26 players included, ahead of friendly matches with Bosnia and Herzegovina at St James’ Park on 3 June and Iceland at Wembley on 7 June. The England manager will then finalise his Euros squad with an announcement on Saturday 8 June, six days before the tournament begins.
