England manager Gareth Southgate has thrown a lifeline to fans hoping to see Luke Shaw play at Euro 2024, saying the sidelined defender has a 'good chance' of making the squad despite his injury struggles. 🏥⚽
Shaw, who hasn't played since February due to a muscle injury, is working overtime with medical staff to regain fitness. Southgate told TalkSport: 'He's progressing very well… we're pleased with how he's doing.' While the Manchester United star still needs to clear final fitness hurdles, the update is brighter than a halftime stadium light show. 💡
The 28-year-old left-back has been crucial for England with 3 goals and 9 assists in 31 appearances. His potential return could boost the Three Lions' defensive lineup as they prepare to face Europe's best in Germany this summer. 🦁🌍
⚡ Fun Fact: Shaw's last goal for England? A rocket against Switzerland in 2018 that had fans spilling their tea in excitement! ☕💥
