England squad numbers in full as Gareth Southgate announces Euro 2020 squad

Gareth Southgate has named his 26-man England squad for the upcoming European Championships as he made a U-turn on Trent Alexander-Arnold.

A 33-man squad had initially been named but Aaron Ramsdale, Ben Godfrey, Ben White, Jesse Lingard, James Ward-Prowse and Ollie Watkins have all been excluded from the final team.

Reports suggested Southgate was going to leave out Alexander-Arnold, but the Liverpool defender has been included as the England manager finalised his squad for Euro 2020.

Gareth Southgate insists every player he selected is there to make a difference and there won't be any "tourists" in the squad.

He said: "The experienced players are the ones that know how to win and have been in tournaments before and driven the team.

"You need that balance. There are the young players that come in and give it energy - we're not taking any tourists here, we've got a squad which every one of whom is ready to play and contribute.

"That's really important because over the next nine matches we hope to be involved in, we're going to need everybody. That experience in the positional mix is really important."

Southgate also says his players cannot wait to play in front of fans again with all three games at Wembley set to welcome back supporters.

He added: "It's exciting for the players to be playing at Wembley and with fans in the stadium - we're looking forward to that.

"I know some of the clubs have played in front of fans but we haven't had that opportunity yet, so we're really looking forward to it.

"It's a great shame some players haven't played for England in front of fans. Some who have made their debuts haven't had family there.

"The fans are such a missing piece. If you've waited all your life to play for England, you want to invite your family - and we haven't been able to do that.

"We won't win matches just because we're at home, we need to play well. We've seen over the last 18 months, it hasn't been the same without full stadiums, so we hope with the fans coming back the fans will have an influence on that."
