Gareth Southgate hints he might not pick 26 players in England squad for Euro 2024 despite Uefa ruling
GARETH SOUTHGATE has dropped a huge hint that he might not pick the full 26 players allowed for his England Euro 2024 squad.
Historically, the limit has been 23 players but both Euro 2020 and the last World Cup both saw that number expand to 26.
Uefa confirmed this month that squads for the European Championship will be allowed to be 26 again.
Southgate will select a larger provisional squad on Tuesday 21 May before he was expected to whittle it down to 23 for the June 7 deadline.
Now regulation change has allowed him the opportunity to take an additional three players.
England have a number of injury worries in defence, especially at full-back.
