Ex-Sheffield United trio Aaron Ramsdale, Harry Maguire and Kyle Walker have been named in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for next week’s UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers against Italy and Ukraine.
Maguire and Walker have been used regularly since the ex-Middlesbrough player took over the Three Lions. Maguire played all five games at the World Cup in Qatar as England reached the last eight before being knocked out by beaten finalists France.
