Harry Maguire
Gareth Southgate has confirmed that Harry Maguire completed another day of training without setback on Thursday, putting him in contention to play against Scotland. Manchester United captain Maguire has been out of action since he suffered an ankle ligament injury in the 3-1 victory over Aston Villa on May 9. Maguire has trained every day over the last week without aggravating the injury and will be involved in England’s second group game against Scotland on Friday, though it’s not clear if that will be as a starter or on the bench.
Gareth Southgate said: “This morning we had 26 players training which is where you want to be. Maguire has trained with no reaction. Harry will be involved tomorrow, its just a matter of if he is ready to start”
A win at Wembley will see England advance to the knockout stages of the competition with a game to spare and Maguire has declared himself fit for the match.
Harry Maguire said: “I feel good, I’ve been training now. Obviously the injury was a setback club football-wise. Internationally I wanted to come into this with a lot of games under my belt with full fitness, but I feel good. I’m back available, been training and I’m looking forward to it.”
Asked if he was desperate to start against Scotland, he added: “Yeah definitely. Obviously, it’s a big game. I’ve done a few sessions now and feel like my fitness is there, so, like I say, I’m available for the game.”
