- Maddison and Jones cut earlier from Euro 2024 squad
- Southgate admits Grealish ‘devastated’ to miss out
Gareth Southgate promised a different England at Euro 2024 after taking the ruthless decision to drop a “devastated” Jack Grealish and the injured Harry Maguire from his final 26-man squad.
Grealish and Maguire were the standout omissions on a difficult day for Southgate, who said he found no joy in overseeing a process that also ended with James Trafford, Jarell Quansah, Jarrad Branthwaite, James Maddison and Curtis Jones being culled from the 33-man training squad.
