England national team boss Gareth Southgate is set to name his Qatar 2022 World Cup squad today as 26 Three Lions stars will fly out to Qatar to participate in the controversial major tournament this winter.
England’s 26-strong World Cup squad will be announced today as Gareth Southgate reveals who has made the cut.
With their Group B opener coming just 11 days after the squad is named, at a tournament that has been unceremoniously wedged into the middle of the season, the England manager is unlikely to spring any major surprises.
Manchester United’s forward Marcus Rashford who is yet to kick a ball for England since missing his spot-kick at the Euro 2020 final but a recent resurgence in form under Erik ten Hag could see him forced in.
Similarly, Leicester City’s James Maddison’s fine form at Kings Power Stadium has led to clamour for the attacking midfielder to be selected, while striker Callum Wilson has caught the eye at Newcastle.
