England confirm 33-player preliminary squad for Euro 2024
As Euro 2024 approaches, the Three Lions are poised to make another strong bid for European glory after their heartbreaking defeat three years ago.
Notable absentees from the squad include Marcus Rashford, Jordan Henderson, and Raheem Sterling, who have been mainstays in England’s recent tournament campaigns.
Nevertheless, England boasts an impressive lineup featuring stars like Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden, and Bukayo Saka, positioning them as formidable contenders for the title in Germany.
Manager Gareth Southgate, at the helm since 2016, has also injected fresh talent into the squad, providing opportunities for players like Curtis Jones, Jarell Quansah, Adam Wharton, Kobbie Mainoo, and others to showcase their skills before the final squad selection of 26 players just prior to the start of Euro 2024.
While England’s Lionesses secured UEFA Women’s Euro 2022 glory two summers ago, the men’s team is still in pursuit of their first-ever European Championship title. Despite coming agonizingly close in Euro 2020, reaching the final only to lose a tense penalty shootout against Italy at Wembley Stadium, the hunger for major silverware remains as strong as ever, echoing the nation’s last triumph in the 1966 World Cup.
