Southgate to give England defensive injury doubts chance in Euros squad
Left-back Luke Shaw one of several fitness concerns Southgate selects provisional squad for Euro 2024 on Tuesday
Gareth Southgate will give his defensive injury doubts the opportunity to prove their fitness when he names his provisional England squad for Euro 2024 on Tuesday – with Luke Shaw and the left-back position his greatest headache.
The England manager is pleased that Uefa have given the go-ahead to a continuation of 26-man squads for the finals rather than reverting to 23; he offered his backing to the move at a coaches meeting in April largely because of the uncertainty he has over a number of players.
