The recent announcement of England’s final Euro squad, which didn’t include Manchester City star Jack Grealish, has sparked considerable speculation.
According to The Daily Telegraph today, the news of Grealish’s exclusion has caused a stir within the England camp. It’s reported that a seasoned player personally approached Southgate to question why Grealish wasn’t selected. There are currently no signs of a heated argument, with the player attempting to comprehend the coach’s decision.
Grealish himself is said to be taken aback but has reacted calmly. He hasn’t publicly commented on the matter as of yet.
Southgate, in an interview, remarked, “We have many options in attack, and it was a tough call, but those are the realities. It was difficult to deliver that news to them (Grealish and Maguire).”
