James Ward-Prowse says he is being spurred on by the disappointment of just missing out on England’s run to the final of the European Championships as he targets a place in Gareth Southgate’s World Cup squad.
When fit, Ward-Prowse was a regular feature of Southgate’s squads during the 2020/21 season and was named in the England boss’ provisional party for last summer’s Euros but was one of those axed when the group was narrowed down to a final 26 on the eve of the tournament.
