Gareth Southgate has named an expanded 33-man England squad for Euro 2020 including Liverpool duo Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson but Nick Pope, Eric Dier and James Maddison all miss out.
Southgate will cut seven players next week after assessing various injury situations while also waiting to see if there are any further complications arising from three English teams contesting the Europa League and Champions League finals in the coming days.

Alexander-Arnold had feared he would miss out after being dropped for England’s previous fixtures in March but he is still a doubt to play at the finals despite a positive end to the season at Anfield.

Henderson has not played a competitive fixture since Feb. 20 following groin surgery and is one of several fitness concerns in the squad with Harry Maguire another high-profile concern, having sustained an ankle injury which makes him a doubt for Wednesday’s Europa League final between Manchester United and Villarreal.
