Tottenham Hotspur’s midfielder, James Maddison, has expressed his disappointment in not making the final Euro 2024 squad of the English national team.

James Maddison was included in Gareth Southgate’s provisional 33-man squad, and he was part of England’s 3-0 friendly win against Bosnia & Herzegovina on Monday, June 3, 2024. However, he left the squad on, Thursday, June 6, 2024, after he was told that he would not make the final squad alongside, Liverpool’s midfielder Curtis Jones who was also excluded from the final 26-man squad for Euro 2024.

The former Leicester City player expressed his disappointment via his official Instagram account on Thursday, June 6, 2024. According to him, he always thought that there would be an extra spot in the team for him in the team.

He wrote,

“Devastated doesn’t quite cut it. Trained well and worked hard all week but if I’m honest with myself, my form for Spurs when coming back from injury in the second half of the season probably wasn’t at the levels I had set which gave Gareth a decision to make. I still thought there would be a space for me in a 26-man squad as I feel I bring something different & had been a mainstay in this whole qualifying campaign for Euro 2024 in Germany but the manager has made the decision and I have to respect that. I’ll be back, I have no doubt. Wishing the boys all the luck in the world out in Germany, an unbelievable group, and lads that I literally call some of my best friends. I genuinely hope football comes home.”

Southgate will release the final 26-man list on Saturday, June 8, 2024, ahead of the competition, which will kick off in Germany on Friday, June 14, 2024.
