Gareth Southgate ignores Gary Lineker's desperate plea as 4 stars axed for Germany clash

Gareth Southgate has decided against including Trent Alexander-Arnold in England's 23-man squad for Monday night's clash against Germany - just days after he was blasted for ignoring the Liverpool star by Gary Lineker.

Alexander-Arnold was an unused substitute on Friday night as England slumped to a 1-0 defeat against Italy in the Nations League; a result that confirmed the Three Lions' relegation from Tier B.

And the 23-year-old will not feature at Wembley against Germany after it was confirmed on Monday that Southgate has opted to omit Alexander-Arnold, Jack Grealish (suspension), James Ward-Prowse, Fikayo Tomori and Jarrod Bowen from his matchday squad.
