Harry Kane Leads, As Sterling, Rashford & Sancho Miss Out On Provisional England Squad For Euro 24
Harry Kane Leads, As Sterling, #Rashford & Sancho Miss Out On Provisional England Squad For Euro 24—-Gareth Southgate has left Raheem Sterling, Marcus Rashford, Jordan Henderson and Jadon Sancho out of England’s provisional squad for Euro 2024 – while giving shock call-ups to Jarell Quansah, Adam Wharton and Curtis Jones.
Raheem Sterling pays the price for an underwhelming campaign with Chelsea, while Jadon Sancho was left out despite having a great second half of the season with Dortmund.
Rashford is another big name Southgate left out of the Three Lions provisional 33-man squad, after a poor season with Manchester United.
But Southgate is willing to give young players a chance to force their way into the squad heading to Germany for the tournament.
Uncapped Liverpool midfielder Jones and defender Quansah have been included, while Wharton is rewarded for his excellent Crystal Palace form following an £18million January move from Blackburn.
Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw is picked despite injury worries that leave his Euro participation in doubt, while his Old Trafford team-mate Kobbie Mainoo is selected again.
Harry Kane’s two understudies up front – Ivan Toney of Brentford and Ollie Watkins of Aston Villa – are both in, though only one may make the final cut.
Also selected in attack as Jarrod Bowen, Eberechi Eze, Anthony Gordon, James Maddison and Cole Palmer with Southgate determined to give everyone an audition.
That also applies in defence, with the uncapped Everton centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite, Liverpool’s versatile Joe Gomez, Villa’s Ezri Konsa, and Palace’s Marc Guehi alongside more established names like Harry Maguire and John Stones.
Burnley’s James Trafford is one of four goalkeepers picked in the enlarged squad.
Those selected will report to a training camp and will hope for a chance to impress Southgate in pre-Euros friendlies against Bosnia and Herzegovina at St James’ Park in Newcastle on June 3 and Iceland at Wembley on June 7.
The deadline for cutting the squad down to a maximum of 26 players is June 7.
England begin their Euro 2024 campaign against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen on June 16, with Denmark and Slovenia also in their group.

Anfield Showdown Brewing as Enzo Fernandez vs Dominik Szoboszlai Comparison Heats Up—-A fierce online debate has erupted ahead of the Premier League clash between Liverpool FC and Chelsea FC, with fans comparing the performances of Enzo Fernández and Dominik Szoboszlai.
The discussion gained traction after a stats graphic shared by Premier League India asked fans to pick between the two midfielders ahead of the highly anticipated encounter at Anfield.
Both players have made 33 Premier League appearances this season, but the numbers reveal contrasting strengths in their games.
Szoboszlai has registered six goals and five assists for Liverpool, highlighting his attacking influence and ability to contribute in the final third during the Reds’ European football qualification.
Enzo, meanwhile, has recorded eight goals and three assists for Chelsea while also dominating creatively with an impressive 24 through balls compared to Szoboszlai’s six.
The midfield battle appears even tighter defensively and physically, with Enzo narrowly edging duels won at 125 compared to Szoboszlai’s 124.
