The Tottenham Hotspur playmaker was among 33 chosen by Gareth Southgate in a large preliminary squad, but was informed he’d be missing out of the eventual group heading to Germany and departed the training camp, despite being in line to start against Iceland in the final pre-tournament warm-up fixture on Friday. Maddison took to social media to explain he felt he could “bring something different” to the Three Lions group and suggested he had been a “mainstay” throughout qualifying - he appeared in three of England’s eight games and was an unsused sub in three more - but also noted his displays during the second half of 2023/24 were not up to scratch. Curtis Jones is also leaving England’s squad, with five more still to be axed by Southgate by Friday night, when the final squad must be submitted to Uefa. I genuinely hope football comes home.” Maddison was behind the likes of Phil Foden and Jude Bellingham as definite inclusions in the squad, with others including Jack Grealish, Eberechi Eze and Anthony Gordon among those still hoping to go as alternatives in the attacking midfield roles for Southgate.
