The highly anticipated Euro 2021 tournament is just around the corner, and all eyes have been on the participating countries as they reveal the players that will represent them in the competition. Fans and experts alike have been eagerly waiting for the announcement of England's squad, and the moment has finally arrived. The Three Lions' head coach, Gareth Southgate, has officially unveiled the 26 players who will be wearing the national team jersey this summer.
The England squad for Euro 2021 is a mix of experienced and young players, with a few surprise selections. The mainstays of the team like Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling, and Jordan Henderson have all been included, while some new faces like Bukayo Saka and Jude Bellingham have also made the cut.
The full squad comprises:
Goalkeepers: Jordan Pickford, Dean Henderson, Sam Johnstone
Defenders: Kyle Walker, John Stones, Harry Maguire, Kieran Trippier, Tyrone Mings, Conor Coady, Ben Chilwell, Luke Shaw, Reece James
Midfielders: Jordan Henderson, Declan Rice, Mason Mount, Kalvin Phillips, Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka
Forwards: Harry Kane, Raheem Sterling, Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Phil Foden
This is a strong squad, with plenty of depth in all positions. The defense looks steady with the likes of Stones and Maguire, while the midfield has a good mix of creativity and steel with Mount and Rice. Up front, Kane will lead the line with the support of Sterling, Rashford, and Sancho.
As is often the case, there are always a few players who miss out on selection. Some of the notable omissions from this year's England squad include:
Trent Alexander-Arnold: The Liverpool right-back was left out of the squad despite his impressive performances in the Premier League.
Eric Dier: The Tottenham defender has been a regular in the England squad but missed out this year due to a dip in form.
Jesse Lingard: The Manchester United midfielder had a strong second half of the season on loan at West Ham United but was not included in the squad.
Southgate mentioned that choosing the final squad was not an easy task, and some tough decisions had to be made. However, he is confident in the players he has selected and believes they will be able to do the country proud in Euro 2021.
With the England squad now finalized, the team will soon be heading to their base in St. George's Park to begin their preparations for the tournament. The Three Lions are in Group D alongside Croatia, Czech Republic, and Scotland, and their first match will be against Croatia on June 13th.
England has failed to win a major trophy since the 1966 World Cup, and expectations will be high on this talented group of players. The pressure will be immense, but Southgate and his team will be hoping to finally bring football home.
The England squad for Euro 2021 is a well-balanced mix of experience and youth, with a number of exciting players who could make a real impact in the tournament. The addition of some fresh faces like Saka and Bellingham will inject some new energy into the team, while the likes of Kane and Sterling will provide the leadership that is needed.
The road ahead will be tough, but if this team can come together and play to their full potential, England fans may finally have a reason to celebrate this summer.
