England manager Gareth Southgate is making a significant decision by including Luke Shaw in the starting lineup for the Euro 2024 final against Spain. Shaw, who came on as a substitute in the semifinal win over the Netherlands, is set to replace Kieran Trippier in the starting XI. This marks only Shaw's second appearance since recovering from a hamstring injury sustained while playing for Manchester United in February.
Southgate's decision to start Shaw showcases the manager's confidence in the player's fitness and abilities as England seeks to secure their first men's title in 58 years. The attacking lineup is expected to feature Harry Kane leading the line, supported by Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden, and Jude Bellingham. Ollie Watkins, the hero of the semifinal with a late winner, is likely to begin the match on the bench.
