England head coach Gareth Southgate has revealed his provisional 33-man roster for Euro 2024 with call-ups for Eberechi Eze, Marc Guehi, and Kobbie Mainoo, but Marcus Rashford or Jordan Henderson will not be part of the team.
Gareth picked 5 uncapped footballers in total – the Reds’ players Curtis Jones and Jarell Quansah, the Toffees’ Jarrad Branthwaite, the Eagles Adam Wharton and Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford – as part of the expanded squad for the competition in Germany.

Cole Palmer, Anthony Gordon, and Ollie Watkins are all part of the English squad after phenomenal seasons in the Premier League with the Blues, the Magpies, and the Villans, respectively, while Brentford attacker Ivan Toney was also named despite playing only a few months in the past campaign.
Jack Grealish is also part of the Southgate squad despite starting just 10 Premier League matches for the Sky Blues, while Mainoo’s phenomenal elevation continues, having only made his full EPL debut for the Red Devils vs. the Toffees in November.
Luke Shaw also is part of the national team despite playing for the last time in February as he suffers from muscle problem.
