Jarrad Branthwaite final player axed by Gareth Southgate as England 26-man squad confirmed

Southgate has made some notable omissions

Last night, it was revealed that James Maddison would be dropped from the final squad as he per numerous reports.

Maddison today subsequently posted a heartfelt statement on Instagram and X wishing the final squad his support whilst describing himself as "devastated".

Earlier today, the Athletic announced that Jack Grealish and Harry Maguire would be cut from the squad, causing shock across the nation.

Maguire, who has been a mainstay in Southgate's squad has been suffering from a calf injury and is unable to recover in time.

Following this, a fresh update from Matt Law of the Daily Telegraph has revealed all the seven omissions, which includes Manchester United target and highly rated young centre back Jarrad Branthwaite.

The other players cut from the final squad are Liverpool's Curtis Jones and Jarell Quansah, as well as Burnley's James Trafford.

How on earth has Jarrad Branthwaite not made England's squad?
