• Young out of England squad to play Spain and Switzerland
• Full-back said to understand Gareth Southgate’s decision
Ashley Young will be an absentee on Thursday when Gareth Southgate names his first England squad since the run to the World Cup semi-finals, with the manager considering a recall for Luke Shaw.
Southgate has spoken to Young who, unlike Jamie Vardy and Gary Cahill, has no intention of retiring from the national team, having played such a key role in Russia, not least with his set-piece delivery.
