‘Better than Grealish’ - Manchester United fans bemused by Jadon Sancho omission from England squad

Jadon Sancho has not been included in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for this month’s Nations League games against Italy and Germany - the final international break before the season pauses for the World Cup.

Sancho has netted twice for the Reds this season but has not done enough to convince the Three Lions boss to draft him back into his set-up. The 22-year-old has not played for his country since bagging two assists in a 5-0 win over Andorra in a World Cup qualifier last October.

Teammates Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw have been named in the squad despite losing their first-team spots to Lisandro Martinez and Tyrell Malacia. Meanwhile, Dean Henderson - currently on loan at Nottingham Forest - gets his first call-up since being named in the England Euro 2020 squad.
